India are likely to begin their two-Test series in Sri Lanka in Galle later this year.
India is slated to play two Tests, with the Galle International Stadium in southern Sri Lanka, expected to host the opener from August 15 to 19. The two Tests will be part of the current World Test Championship (WTC) cycle.
The venue for the second Test has not yet been confirmed, but it is most likely to be given to the Sinhalese Sports Club (SSC) ground. That match is scheduled to start on August 23. The two-Test series will mark India’s first Test tour of Sri Lanka in nine years, since 2017, when India, under Virat Kohli whitewashed the hosts 3-0.
Neither Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) nor the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has officially announced the itinerary.
In addition to the two Tests, India are also likely to play three T20Is.
