Best Answer

The Indian cricket teamtoured Sri Lanka in August 1997, participating in two Test matches and three One Day International(ODI) matches. During the first Test match, Sri Lanka scored 952 runs for 6 wickets, the highest team total in Test cricket. Several more records were established in this match, including the highest partnership for the third wicket by Sanath Jayasuriyaand Roshan Mahanama. The Test series ended without a result, with both Test matches drawn.

Sri Lanka managed to win all three of the One Day International matches, although the third one had to be replayed due to bad weather. Sanath Jayasuriya was the most notable player during the tournament. He was selected as player of the series in both the Test series and the ODI series, and won two man of the match awards as well. He was the highest scoring batsman during the Test series, and also took the highest number of wickets for Sri Lanka in the ODI series.
