The Sri Lanka cricket team will be touring Zimbabwe from 13 November and 30 November 2008. They will play five One Day Internationals against Zimbabwe.

Zimbabwe may not be the kind of opposition Sri Lanka would like to have to improve their rankings, but the tour, which comprises five ODIs in addition to two practice matches, gives them the opportunity to give some of their younger players a taste of international cricket.

Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe are facing each other in a bilateral contest after four years. The last time they met was in Zimbabwe in 2004, when Sri Lanka whitewashed the hosts 2-0 in Tests and 5-0 in ODIs. Zimbabwe haven't improved much since then and Sri Lanka will be disappointed if they don't repeat that scoreline.
