Fresh off a historic Test series win on English soil, the BLACKCAPS will return to England in September 2027 for a bumper white-ball tour featuring three T20Is and five ODIs across eight venues, in what shapes as important preparation for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2027 to be hosted in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia next October-December.
The tour, confirmed today by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), begins with three T20Is in Durham, Manchester and Cardiff from September 7-11, before the five-match ODI series gets underway at Edgbaston on September 14.
The series continues to Lord’s in the only game in London before moving to Bristol, Trent Bridge and concludes at Headingley on September 25 – with the final ball bowled just nine days before the World Cup opener on October 4.
The BLACKCAPS head to England on the back of a 2-1 Test series win in June, their first win in a series of three-or-more Tests on English soil since 1999.
Tickets and further tour details will be released in due course.
