Sydney, India and Australia will meet in a multi-format women's A series in Queensland next month, in what is seen as a build-up to the upcoming T20 World Cup in Bangladesh in less than four months.

The tour will consist of three T20Is in Brisbane, three ODIs in Mackay and a four-day match in the Gold Coast.

Cricket Australia on Monday confirmed the schedule and named three Australia A teams for the series.

Australia vice-captain Tahlia McGrath will lead the 20s and 50s teams, while Charli Knott will take charge of the four-day game.

"I'm really looking forward to being part of this series and the challenge that India A will pose," McGrath told cricket.com.au.

“For those of us who don't play in The Hundred it gives us the opportunity to prepare for a great summer against strong opposition,” she added.

Australian quicks Megan Schutt, Kim Garth and Tayla Vlaeminck will also feature in the white-ball matches, which will be their first hit since April's tour of Bangladesh as they begin preparations for the T20 World Cup scheduled for October.
