Fantasy Cricket Tips For SL vs NZ
SeriesDate & TimeLocation
New Zealand tour of Sri Lanka18 Sep 2024, Wed, 10:00 AM ISTGalle International Stadium
Match Preview

The two-match Test series between Sri Lanka and New Zealand will begin with the first Test match, which is scheduled to take place at Galle International Cricket Stadium on September 18. After what, sadly, turned out to be a happy season—especially after the victory against England at the Oval—the hosts will face the Kiwis with a short turnaround.

The previous time these teams played in a Test series, New Zealand emerged victorious in both matches last year. But that victory was at home, and winning Test matches away from home presents a formidable challenge for the Black Caps, who haven't won an overseas assignment since 2019. This is despite them having won the first-ever World Test Championship.

Pitch Report
Spinners will find paradise at the Galle International Stadium, a stunning location sandwiched between the historic Galle Fort and the Indian Ocean. Due to the dampness and humidity in the first several days, pacers may need some assistance on the pitch, which is noted for being difficult. But when the pitch dries up, this early seam movement and swing quickly disappears.
