ICC suspends Sri Lanka Cricket’s membership
Mobitel inner 1278

The International Cricket Council (ICC) Board has suspended Sri Lanka Cricket’s membership of the ICC with immediate effect.

 

The ICC Board met today (10 Nov.) and determined that Sri Lanka Cricket is in serious breach of its obligations as a Member, in particular, the requirement to manage its affairs autonomously and ensure that there is no government interference in the governance, regulation and/or administration of cricket in Sri Lanka.

 

The conditions of the suspension will be decided by the ICC Board in due course.

 

The ICC Board is set to meet on November 21, after which the future course of action is expected to be clearer.

 

Sri Lanka is scheduled to host the ICC Under-19 Men’s Cricket World Cup across January and February 2024.  

 

The Sri Lanka men’s team have had a forgettable time at the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, winning just two of their nine matches and finishing with four points. They sit at No.8 in the points table with three more matches to be played in the league phase.
