ENG vs SL Fire Alarm: The England vs Sri Lanka Test series has not even started yet, but this series has already become a topic of discussion. Actually, the first match of this series is to be played on 21 August at Old Trafford Stadium, but before that a strange incident has happened during the practice session. According to a media report, the Sri Lankan team was thrown out of the dressing room due to the fire alarm ringing in the dressing room.
The fire alarm rings when there is a fire in the surroundings. The good thing is that the news of fire in the Sri Lankan team’s dressing room turned out to be false. Although the team returned to the dressing room after 15 minutes, the alarm had created an atmosphere of tension.
Golden opportunity for Sri Lanka
Let us tell you that Ben Stokes and Jack Crowley are not playing in the three-Test series against Sri Lanka. In such a situation, the visiting team has a chance to register only the second Test series win while playing in England after 2014. In 2014, Sri Lanka defeated the England team 1-0 in the Test series and at present this Asian team is looking in very good form under the captaincy of Dhananjay de Silva.
Let us tell you that before the Test series against England starting on 21 August, Sri Lanka played a 4-day practice match against England Lions, in which Sri Lanka had to face a crushing defeat by 7 wickets. Giving the reason for that defeat, captain De Silva said that he wanted one more practice match to get used to the environment of England, but his demand was rejected. Well, now the Test series between the two teams is going to start from 21 August.
