New Zealand and Australia are set to play a T20I series in March 2022 next year. The NZ vs AUS T20I series will consists of three T20I games and will be played at Kiwis’ home. New Zealand are already scheduled to tour Australia for a three-match ODI series and one-off T20I game in January-February next year.

However, since the New Zealand vs Australia T20I series in March 2022 will clash with Australia’s Test series against Pakistan, players like Steve Smith, David Warner, Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood are likely to miss the T20I series against New Zealand.
