The series will end Australia’s eight-year absence from the cricket-starved nation. The men from Down Under last sent a team in 2018 for a T20 tri-series against the hosts and Pakistan.
In terms of ODIs, it's been even longer. Australia played in another triangular series with South Africa in 2014, where Zimbabwe earned a famous three-wicket win over the esteemed visitors.
The series - played on 15, 18 and 20 September at the Harare Sports Club - will help the nation prepare for co-hosting the 2027 World Cup.
"We are delighted to welcome Australia back to Zimbabwe for what promises to be a highly competitive ODI series," said Zimbabwe Cricket managing director Givemore Makoni.
"Fixtures of this calibre are vital for our growth as a team. With the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2027 on the horizon, this tour provides invaluable preparation as we build towards hosting the tournament alongside South Africa and Namibia.
"It is also a fantastic opportunity for our fans to experience top-level international cricket at home, and we look forward to strong support at Harare Sports Club."
The last time the two nations met was at the T20 World Cup in February in Colombo, where Zimbabwe beat Australia by 23 runs, contributing to their early exit.
Zimbabwe midfielder Marshall Munetsi says the Warriors are eager to measure themselves against the Super Eagles ahead of their highly anticipated Unity Cup clash next week Tuesday, 26 May.
Pat Cummins revealed his back injury is a thing of the past as he looks towards the end of the World Test Championship cycle.
Cricket Australia have made several bold calls in the announcement of their touring squad for six ODIs and three T20Is in Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Australia are set to be missing several key personnel when they tour Pakistan for three ODIs starting later this month.
