It will be followed by two more Tests against England at home.
The second Test of the series is scheduled to be played from Jan. 22, the addictor said.

“We have asked Cricket West Indies to send us their health guidelines, and we are awaiting a response,” said Sri Lanka Cricket Chief Executive Officer, Ashley de Silva. “Once we receive the guidelines, we will definitely evaluate it and then take a call.
“We will have further discussions with them on the health part of it,” he added.
With regard to the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Caribbean, De Silva said: “We haven’t got any feedback from them regarding the pandemic and we haven’t heard very much about it.”
