The schedule kicks-off with the series against New Zealand in May and June. The three matches will take place in three-and-a-half weeks with only two days between the end of the second Test and the start of the third.
Sandwiched between the two Test series will be a triangular one-day series involving all three teams, one of two such series England will play.
The opponents for the second one-day series will be confirmed next month, but the ECB said the tournament had been moved back to late August/early September to allow England to use it as preparation for the Champions Trophy.
England will host the Champions Trophy for the first time from September 8 to 25 next year.
