The England cricket team toured Sri Lanka in March 1993 for a single Test match and two one-day internationals. Sri Lanka won all three matches.
The opening day in the Test match clashed with the last day of the Royal–Thomian Cricket Encounter (Battle of the Blues), which attracted greater media interest in Sri Lanka.
