The South Africa vs Sri Lanka Test series is set to begin on December 26 with the first game scheduled at the SuperSport Park in Centurion.

South Africa have made many changes in their squad as the coronavirus pandemic wreaked havoc in their preparatory camp. On the other hand, Sri Lanka are in the bubble and quietly preparing for the upcoming matches.

The two teams previously met each other in 2019, when Kusal Perera shared a last-wicket stand of 76 with Vishwa Fernando in Durban. Sri Lanka won that match by one wicket while chasing 304 runs.

In the next encounter at Port Elizabeth, Sri Lanka registered a comprehensive win and became the first Asian team to clinch the Test series in South Africa.

In the upcoming series which is also a part of the ongoing ICC World Test Championship (WTC), both South Africa and Sri Lanka are potentially out of contention for the playoffs race but will compete for pride.
