Sri Lanka vs New Zealand Live Streaming: Sri Lanka will host New Zealand in a two-match Test series, which will be part of the World Test Championship cycle, starting with the first Test at the Galle International Stadium in Galle from Wednesday (September 18).

Sri Lanka led by Dhananjaya de Silva are currently placed in fifth position of the WTC standings after victory over England in the away series. The home side will be keen to carry on the momentum to keep their slim WTC Final qualification hopes alive.

Tim Southee’s New Zealand, on the other hand, are third in the WTC table, but have not played in the longest format for more than 9 months now after their recent one-off Test against Afghanistan was abandoned without a ball being bowled.

This will be New Zealand’s first visit to Sri Lanka since 2019 when the honours were shared after the series ended 1-1. The Kiwis, however, will hope to better their Test record at Galle, having lost in their four previous matches at the venue.

With both teams mathematically still alive in the WTC final race, the series garners interest among true cricket fans across the world, who will be eager to for red ball action. So, here is a look at the Sri Lanka vs New Zealand Live Streaming and Telecast Info:
