JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Australia will play three tests, five one-day internationals and two Pro20 matches on their tour of South Africa from February to April next year, Cricket South Africa (CSA) announced on Friday.

Australia open their tour on February 20 with a three-day warm-up match against South Africa A in Potchefstroom, the only time they will not be playing the national team.

The three tests will be played in the "traditional venues" of Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town, the CSA statement said.

The tour ends on April 17 with the last of the one-day internationals.
