Australia, the reigning one-day international and Test champions, will play three one-day internationals and a Test match against the Rest of the World. No dates and venues have yet been finalised. The matter will be taken further when the ICC president, Ehsan Mani, and its chief executive, Malcolm Speed, visit South Africa at the end of March.
