    "editor1": "T20 World Cup Africa Region: Zimbabwe\u2019s tour of Sri Lanka for white series comprising three ODIs and as many as T20Is in January next year with a three-game ODI series starting from January 6 followed by a three-game T20I series between January 14-18.<p>This will be Zimbabwe's first bilateral visit to Island nation since 2022. Zimbabwe have shown good form against the Lions in recent years, including a stunning 3-2 ODI series win during their tour of Sri Lanka in 2017.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sri Lanka will look to pick up the pieces after a disappointing ICC Men\u2019s Cricket World Cup 2023 campaign, during which they failed to qualify for the knockout stage and finished in the second-last place.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The upcoming game time is set to be invaluable for the Sri Lankan team, especially with the T20 World Cup on the horizon. They have a packed schedule, including T20I series against Afghanistan (three games at home) and Bangladesh (three games away) in early 2024.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Zimbabwe, on the other hand, will be hoping to lift themselves after a string of disappointing results. They failed to qualify for the ICC Men\u2019s T20 World Cup 2024 after being unable to secure a top-two finish in the ICC Men\u2019s T20 World Cup Africa Region Qualifier. This was followed by a 1-2 series loss to Ireland at home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>ODI series schedule<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>January 6, 1st ODI, RPICS Colombo<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>January 8, 2nd ODI, RPICS Colombo<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>January 11, 3rd ODI, RPICS Colombo<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>T20I series schedule<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>January 14, 1st T20I, RPICS Colombo<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>January 16, 2nd T20I, RPICS Colombo<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>January 18, 3rd T20I, RPICS Colombo<\/p>\r\n\r\n",
