Australia’s tour of Sri Lanka 2022 will enter its last leg in the form of a two-match Test series starting from tomorrow. While Colombo and Pallekele had combined to host eight white-ball matches between these two teams earlier this month, Galle will be hosting both the Test matches.
Sri Lanka, who were phenomenal in winning the ODI series 3-2 after losing the T20Is 2-1, have justified as to why they shouldn’t be taken lightly. With the Test series emerging as a final after both teams winning a series each, fans can expect a couple of tightly-contested matches.
As far as the ongoing ICC World Test Championship is concerned, Sri Lanka are at the fourth position after winning three and losing two out of their six Tests. Australia, on the other hand, are the table toppers on the back of five wins and no losses in their eight matches thus far. Hence, there’s a lot to gain and maintain for both Sri Lanka and Australia respectively in this series.
