England list full Ashes schedule

The England and Wales Cricket Board has revealed the full itinerary for the 2009 Ashes series against Australia.

Having announced in April that Cardiff would stage the first Test from 8 July, dates for the seven one-dayers and two Twenty20 matches have been added.

Old Trafford gets the Twenty20 games, on 30 August and 1 September.

The first one-dayer is three days later at The Oval, Lord's and Trent Bridge get two each, and the Rose Bowl and the Riverside are also in the schedule.

The redeveloped Swalec Stadium in Cardiff will start the five-Test series, with the subsequent Tests at Lord's, Edgbaston, Headingley and the Oval.

The venues had been announced in 2006, with Cardiff controversially chosen ahead of Old Trafford in Manchester.

Meanwhile, Hampshire's Rose Bowl will host its first Test against Sri Lanka in 2011.

The Southampton venue, which opened in 2001, will become England's 10th Test ground when it hosts one game of a three-Test series - with Cardiff hosting one of the others.

Both grounds will also host one-day internationals against Australia in 2010 and India in 2011.

The Swalec Stadium, on the Sophia Gardens site, was awarded Test match status in April 2006 and a £9.5m redevelopment has boosted capacity from 5,500 to 15,643.

As well as the 2009 Ashes, venues have been announced for 2009, 2010 and 2011 - including tours by Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, West Indies, Sri Lanka and India.

However, Old Trafford was not awarded a Test match during the three-year period.
