After a 10-month delay, the first Test of the imminent England’s tour of Sri Lanka will begin at the Galle International Stadium from January 14.
The two-match Test series will witness both the matches being played at the same venue as Sri Lanka will host international cricket for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic.
Out of the 34 Tests that Sri Lanka and England have played against each other, Sri Lanka have won just eight as compared to England’s 15 victories.
The last time when Sri Lanka and England had locked horns against each other was just over a couple of years ago when England had whitewashed Sri Lanka 3-0 in Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka, who haven’t beaten England in a Test since their Headingley victory in 2014, would be looking to improve their record especially whilst playing at home.
