Australia's international season will start with a T20 series against South Africa in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide. This will be followed by five ODIs played in Perth on two days, followed by Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney
Following the India Test series, Australia will play England and India in an one-day tri-series from January 16-February 1 ahead of the World Cup, which is staged in Australia and New Zealand and begins on February 14.
"The 2014-15 schedule looks very different to previous summers due in large part to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 that we are co-hosting with New Zealand for the first time in 23 years," Cricket Australia chief James Sutherland said.
There was some controversy regarding the schedule when it was decided that the annual Australia Day match, normally played in Adelaide, was shifted to Sydney this summer. However, Sutherland said that the packed nature of the schedule and the fact that only four Tests were been played this summer compared to five or six meant some logistical challenges in the programmers.
The WACA Perth miss out on a Test match due to concerns regarding its ground facilities and size.
