The two matches will be held at the Great Barrier Reef Arena in Mackay from October 31 to November 3 followed by the MCG from November 7 to 10.
From Australia’s point of view, the two A matches will overtake the ODIs and the T20Is against Pakistan so the selectors may need to decide if there are any players involved in the white ball teams who could play for the A team. They will also clash in the Sheffield Shield games.
The T20Is against Pakistan are unlikely to feature Australia’s Test players if they are close to the India series.
Last season Pakistan faced the Prime Minister’s XI, then the Australia A team, in Canberra ahead of the Test series.
On their previous tour of Australia in 2020-21, there were two warm-up matches against Australia A before the Test series. India won that series 2-1.
The Indian women’s team will also tour Australia for three ODIs in early December before the men’s second Test in Adelaide.
