England's men face a congested Test calendar in June and July next year, with six games - including a five-match Ashes series - crammed into 61 days.
Australia come calling from Friday, June 16 - with matches set to be held at Edgbaston, Lord's, Headingley, Emirates Old Trafford and the Kia Oval.

Two weeks prior to the first Ashes Test in Birmingham, Ireland will visit for a one-off Test at Lord's - with the game set to start on June 1.
The clash will take place over four days, as was the case the last time the Irish played a Test in England in 2019.
Ireland captain Andrew Balbirnie said: "That match against England in 2019 was the last Test we have played, so we are excited to be returning to play the red-ball game next year.
"It's one of four Test matches we are scheduled to play in 2023, which is so important for such a relatively young squad. There is no better place to really learn, develop and test your game as in multi-day cricket."
England's women will be in Ashes action at the same time, with their schedule - for series against Australia and Sri Lanka - also released on Wednesday (September 21).
"June and July will be very special months for cricket in this country with the buzz of two Ashes series taking place simultaneously," ECB interim chief executive Clare Connor said.

Following the conclusion of the Ashes campaign, and after a three-week break during which The Hundred is expected to take place, England's men will welcome New Zealand for ODI and T20I series.
Durham, Old Trafford, Edgbaston and Trent Bridge will host the T20 leg of the tour, between August 30 and September 5, before the ODIs in Cardiff, Southampton, Lord's and the Oval between September 8 and 15.
An ODI series against Ireland will wrap up the summer - at Headingley, Trent Bridge and Bristol between September 20 and 26, meaning England men's white-ball squad will play 11 games in 27 days.
The World Cup in India is due to start aroud October 10.

Another ridiculous international schedule. Nothing in August in the main holiday season beggars belief. However we know that The Hundred rules OK. This is the competition taking over around the world? Tell me another. T20 is though. Les Bone

Surely test matches should be arranged first as ODI's are far easier to fit into gaps in the schedules.

Why are we still putting fixtures into September, when dew becomes a significant factor in the toss, that as ODI's will have to take place either during the morning or evening. Surely playing 20-20 in the autumnal afternoons makes more sense if you're looking for a fair contest, or is the cash cow riding roughshod over that too.
