Failure to take stern action in the past on similar incidents have led to all this. They think they are indispensable. Punish him so that all other cricketers will be on their guard

This is what happened to Srilanka Cricket. There is no discipline in the team. Captain should set an example to his team. No point in getting good coaches, changing minister and the selection board if the team is indisciplined.

Please stop the drama. It is the three wheel drivers fault, arrest the three wheel driver and send him to jail. The captain was not under the influence.

Disciplinary action should be taken against him. They think no end of themselves. This is the problem with our team
