In pictures: Afghanistan in Colombo for one-off Test

Afghanistan cricket team, led by Hashmatullah Shahidi, reached Colombo today to play a one-off Test against hosts Sri Lanka, starting from Friday. The Afghans are making a name for themselves in white-ball cricket but have had less chance to impress in five-day matches ever since they were granted Test status in 2017. Friday will be their first-ever Test against Sri Lanka and the eighth overall. PHOTO: AFP
