Sri Lanka will host India for a two-match test series next month, the first in nine years, the island's cricket board announced Thursday.
The opening match will be played at the Galle International Stadium from 15 August, while the second will begin on 23 August at Colombo's Sinhalese Sports Club, Sri Lanka Cricket said.
"The series is part of the ICC World Test Championship 2025–2027 cycle," the board said.
India's last test tour of Sri Lanka was in July 2017, when they played three matches, with the tourists completing a clean sweep, including two innings victories.
Sri Lanka's last test tour of India was in March 2022, when they lost both matches to the hosts.
