Ireland are touring Sri Lanka to participate in a 2 match Test series beginning on the 16th of April. The second Test of the series will be played on the 24th of April.
Both of the Test matches have been scheduled to take place at the Galle International Stadium.
This is a first ever Test Series for Ireland as they have previously only participated in 1 game Test matches. Sri Lanka and Ireland will be meeting for the first time against each other in a Test format.
