Australia are touring Sri Lanka to participate in a 2 Match Test and a 2 match ODI Series, beginning on the 29th of January. The highly awaited tour will begin with the Test Series, followed by the ODI Series.

Much like this tour, Australia's most recent Test tour to Sri Lanka contained two Tests, both in Galle. Australia won the first Test by 10 wickets before the hosts replied with an innings and 39-run victory. Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith both scored century in the latter, with Mitch Starc the best of the Aussie bowlers with 4-89.
