The England cricket team will tour Sri Lanka next month for a two-test series which will also be a part of the ongoing ICC World Test Championship. The first test match will begin on 19th March 2020 at the
Galle International Cricket Stadium, walking distance from Le Grand Galle; travelling local fans and visiting English supporters known as the Barmy Army can consider such accommodation options when searching for the best hotels in Galle near the stadium.
For the second test, the teams will head to the commercial capital, Colombo; the match which was initially to be played at the R. Premadasa Stadium has now been shifted to the Sinhalese Sports Club (SSC) and will commence on 27th March. With 60 points per test match victory on offer, both teams will be keen to add to their tally and increase their rankings in the ICC World Test Championship.
