The home cricket schedule for next summer has been confirmed with the Indian and Sri Lankan men's teams touring New Zealand, while the Bangladesh women will take on the White Ferns.
There's plenty of early season cricket as India play the Black Caps in five T20 internationals, five ODI's and two Tests in October and November.
'LATEST HEADLINES:
The 12 matches are the most internationals scheduled for an in-bound tour in New Zealand Cricket history.
The lack of a cricket venue means Aucklnad gets just one T20 and one ODI against India despite the population of the city being nearly a third of the nations population.
After playing their four-Test series in Australia, the Black Caps will return home to play Sri Lanka in three ODI's, three T20 Internationals and two Tests in January and February.
The White Ferns face Bangladesh in three T20 Internationals and three ODI's before Christmas.
The Indian men's Tests will be played at the Basin Reserve and Hagley Oval and the Sri Lankan men's Tests at Bay Oval and Seddon Park.
The White Ferns games will be played in Nelson, Wellington and Tauranga.
