Cricket South Africa announced a bumper itinerary for Australia's much anticipated tour of the country next year.

The tour programme consists of three Test matches, five one-day internationals and two Twenty20 internationals.

The Tests will be played at the traditional venues of Wanderers Stadium, in Johannesburg, Kingsmead, in Durban, and Newlands, in Cape Town.

The tour starts in the second half of February and finishes in mid-April.

The opening Test gets under way in Johannesburg on February 26.
