The one-off Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan Test will start on Friday (February 2) at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo. It's a historic occasion because it's the first time the two nations will cross swords in the longest format of the game.
Afghanistan made their Test debut in 2018. While they have competed against India and Bangladesh in the format, they have never battled the Lankans before.
Hashmatullah Shahidi will lead the visitors in the historic Test, while the home team will play under all-rounder Dhananjaya de Silva.
