India will host Sri Lanka for a seven-match One-Day International series between October 25 and November 12 while the South Africans play a five-match ODI series from November 16 to 28.
Announcing the dates for the two series, Board of Control for Cricket in India secretary S K Nair said the Sri Lankans will play their matches on October 25, 28, 31, November 3, 6, 9 and 12 at Mohali, Nagpur, Vadodara, Ahmedabad, Jaipur or Jodhpur, Rajkot and Pune.
The South Africans open their series on November 16, followed by matches on November 19, 22, 25 and 28 at Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad.
"The venue for each match would be decided in consultation with the respective Boards," Nair said.
He said Ahmedabad was allotted another ODI for not being able to stage a Test after Pakistan refused to play there earlier this year.
Hyderabad was allotted a match because the Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association said they are still not ready to stage an ODI, he added. The match will be played at a new stadium in Hyderabad.
Nair said details of both the series would be decided as per logistics. Whether the matches would be day/night would be decided with consultation with other associations.
He said the Tours and Fixtures Committee meeting was chaired by BCCI vice-president Kamal Morarka and attended by all members barring BCCI treasurer Jyoti Bajpai.
Those who attended the meeting were: Morarka, Nair (convenor), BCCI joint-secretary Gautam Dasgupta and regional representatives M P Pandove (Punjab, representing north zone), Dayanand Narvekar (Goa, representing South), Bikas Barua (Assam, representing East), Hitesh Patel (Gujarat, representing West) and Prakash Dixit (Vidarbha, representing Central).
Regarding Goa, Nair said a special committee was formed to look into its case and no match could be allotted to it unless the committee gives its decision.
Goa last hosted an ODI, between India and Australia in the 2001 series. Thousands of bogus tickets were sold and genuine ticket-holders were denied entry as the stadium was packed to capacity. Narvekar was named the key accused in the ticket scam and arrested.
