SL vs Eng: Sri Lanka's Cautious Covid Welcome Reassures England Ahead Of Tests

By AFP News January 04, 2021 • 17:55 PM View: 4159

Beginning a Test tour with hazmat suits, disinfection spray and isolation would knock many athletes for six, but England's cricketers are grateful for the cautious welcome laid on by their Sri Lankan hosts, fast bowler James Anderson said Monday.

England arrived on the Indian Ocean island Sunday to resume a tour cancelled in the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic and will be hoping to repeat their 3-0 whitewash of Sri Lanka in 2018.
