The Kookaburras and Hockeyroos will play matches in Victoria as part of a post-Olympics hockey festival in November.

A four-team men's event will be played in Melbourne, including the Australia, India, Malaysia and a yet-to-be-announced team.

Both India and Australia will then head to the Victorian town of Bendigo for another two-match Test series on November 29 and 30.

The Hockeyroos will also take on India's national women's side in a tournament in Melbourne.

India are set to send their men's team to Australia every year for the next three years as part of a deal signed last year.
