The Kia Oval will host an England Test match in June for the first time next year, but will revert to its status as the home of the final Test of the summer for the 2027 men's Ashes, while the long-awaited maiden women's Test at Lord's, against India from July 10-13, has been confirmed as a four-day fixture.

Oval to host England Test in June for first time as 2026 fixtures are announced

Surrey have traditionally hosted the last Test of the English season and will do so for the 12th time in 15 years next week when The Oval stages the finale of England's series against India. But they will instead host New Zealand from June 17-21 in 2026 after consultation with other counties, with development projects limiting the availability of other venues.
