Australia men's cricket coach Andrew McDonald has had his contract extended to the end of 2027, following success in the red and white ball game.

McDonald, who took over the side in 2022, has guided Australia to being the number one ranked Test team in the world, while also being ranked second in one day and T20.

Since McDonald became coach Australia has won their maiden World Test Championship, won the 50-over World Cup in India, and retained the Ashes last year in England.

"I am very fortunate to have an exceptional group of leaders, players, coaches and staff who are fully invested in the ongoing well-being, success and development of this group," McDonald said.

"The professionalism, commitment and experience of my fellow coaches and the wider staff have ensured the journey has been extremely successful but just as importantly created a culture of unity, trust and inclusivity.

"International cricket has many challenges for all teams and I am particularly proud how the group, players and staff, across all formats have navigated those together."

McDonald faces one of the toughest assignments of his tenure, trying to win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy over India.

The five-Test series begins on November 22 in Perth, with India claiming famous series victories on the previous two tours in Australia.

Australia has not won a Border-Gavaskar series since the 2014-15 summer, when they defeated India 2-0 in a four-Test series.
