    Dinesh Thursday, 22 September 2016 08:52 AM

    Disgrace.. he's had enough similar incident to get him self removed from the national cricketing list..

    sigiriya Thursday, 22 September 2016 09:09 AM

    Maybe he was 'sleep-driving'!

    pradeep Thursday, 22 September 2016 09:10 AM

    Undisciplined people like him shall not be selected to represent the country. His behavior from the school level not acceptable.

    kad Thursday, 22 September 2016 09:19 AM

    Over to you Mr. Keheliya Rambukwella,i think its better you correct your home and family members first before correcting the country

    Rex Thursday, 22 September 2016 09:19 AM

    MR, KR, WW, BG,.... : "No one is injured and nobody complained. How can the police arrest an "innocent person".

    Veda-mama Thursday, 22 September 2016 09:26 AM

    Whoever it is, a drunk driver should be severely dealt with by impounding the vehicle and suspending the driver's license for a specified period of time.

    They say, "Sports builds character." My foot!

    IVJ Thursday, 22 September 2016 09:56 AM

    What do they mean they " suspect". Can't they easily confirm it with a breathalyzer?

    Unchikun Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:01 AM

    Take the fellow to the high rise building for questioning. Papa or MR will pay the bill should be jump. I guess like father like son. Ha Ha Ha!

    Mevan Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:05 AM

    His father will say that he is suffering from somnambulism and drove the car in sleep. In fact this fellow tried to open the door of an aircraft when it was flying at 30,000 ft.

    Rehan Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:12 AM

    Throw this bloody idiot in jail

    Manuel Benjamin Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:13 AM

    We have not forgotten he had been drunk too much and trying to open the Main Door of the Air-craft. He should be severely punished.

    J Palitha Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:15 AM

    Last night he was drinking a lot and creating a mess fighting with so many guys. This guy should be sacked from SriLankan Cricket and also punished severely.

    Bala Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:28 AM

    The charge is driving under the influence of intoxicant - no one need complain. Even without accident, Police can check you on the road - just behind a wheel on a public road is enough offence. Learn the Law.

    Wicks Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:49 AM

    Boys are boys.

    San Sen Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:54 AM

    I saw this accident. The car was a brand new unregistered Audi A8 which is worth over 30 million. From where has he got this money. My guess is as good as yours!!!

    WhomToTellAndCryChild Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:54 AM

    He can thank his father for supporting his nonsense
