Team India will take on New Zealand and Bangladesh in the warm-up matches leading up to the ICC World Cup 2019 that starts May 30 in the United Kingdom.
Virat Kohli's side will start their World Cup camp against the Kiwis on May 25 at The Oval.
Two days later, on May 28, they will meet Bangladesh at the Cardiff Wales Stadium.
The ICC released the fixtures for the preparatory games, to be held from May 24 to May 28, on Monday.
ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2019 Managing Director, Steve Elworthy, said: “It is always a huge milestone announcing an exciting warm-up schedule for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup as it really highlights just how close we are to the action getting underway this summer.
“These games provide another fantastic opportunity for fans to see world-class players at their local venue and allows the tournament to engage local schools and communities with another chance to get involved with the Cricket World Cup.”
The other high-profile clashes include England vs Australia and Pakistan vs Afghanistan.
All fixtures will be 50 over a side, but it will not carry the ODI status as teams can field all members of their 15-man squad.
