Remember that before the Test series against South Africa, the whole England team was suffering from stomach and nasal diseases.

Joe Root said that we have decided that we will not shake hands with each other and are constantly washing hands, not yet worried about the visit but we are in touch with the authorities on the current situation and hope that the tour plan Will reach the end according to.

The Sri Lankan team will play the first two practice matches, followed by the start of a two-Test series, which is part of the World Test Championship.

Remember that England won 3-0 in Sri Lanka two years ago but Root thinks the Sri Lankan team will be a tough opponent this time.

"Given the part of the year we are here, the conditions will be different, even the matches played two years ago were very interesting and the margin of success in all matches was less than 60 runs," he said.
