Exciting News for Cricket Enthusiasts

Cricket enthusiasts can look forward to complimentary access during the upcoming two-Test series between Sri Lanka and India, commencing on August 15 in Galle, as announced by the Sri Lanka Cricket board on Friday.


In a statement, Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) expressed, “We are pleased to inform that entry for the public to the Test Series featuring Sri Lanka and India will be free, offering fans a fantastic chance to witness top-tier Test cricket.”


The initial match is set to take place at the Galle International Stadium, while the second Test will occur at the SSC in Colombo from August 23-27.


SLC further encouraged cricket lovers, budding cricketers, families, and sports fans nationwide to seize this opportunity and immerse themselves in the thrill of international Test cricket between Sri Lanka and India.


Historically, Test cricket in Sri Lanka has struggled to draw crowds, with even past Indian teams playing in front of sparse audiences.


In the sub-continent, the red-ball format has not been particularly appealing in terms of attendance, except in a few Indian cities like Kolkata, Chennai, Mumbai, and Bengaluru.
