April 4 (CRICKETNMORE) - CRICKET SOUTH AFRICA (CSA) and Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) today announced the itinerary for the Standard Bank Proteas tour of Sri Lanka in the second half of 2018. The tour will consist of two Test matches, five One-Day Internationals and a solitary T20 International match.
“This will be a very important tour for us,” commented CSA Acting Chief Executive Thabang Moroe. “We have a lot of exciting, young players coming into our side in all three formats and, with so much of our international cricket being played on the sub-continent these days it is important they get used to those conditions as soon as possible.
“Many of them have played very little cricket over there and indeed some none at all. For instance, we can look forward with tremendous anticipation to the performances of our leading Test match spinner, Keshav Maharaj, who has yet to play a Test on the sub-continent.
