England will tour India early next year and play their first day-night Test in the country at the biggest cricket ground in the world.

The sides will play four Tests starting on 5 February, with the third under lights at Ahmedabad's 110,000-capacity Motera stadium.

Chennai will host the first two Tests and Ahmedabad the final two.

They will be followed by five Twenty20s in Ahmedabad and three one-day internationals in Pune.

It had been reported

that the United Arab Emirates - which staged the Indian Premier League from September to November - could have hosted the tour because of coronavirus concerns in India.

On Wednesday England confirmed they will play two Tests in Sri Lanka from 14-26 January.
