The Supreme Court today suggested relevant parties to hold talks and conduct an election to appoint officials to Sri Lanka Cricket within 3 months.

This comes after the United Southern Sports Club filed a Fundamental Rights petition in the Supreme Court earlier on behalf of sports clubs, who were not able to vote to elect members to the Sri Lanka Cricket Board since 2004.

The petitioner claimed that they not being able to vote to elect SLC officials was against the Sri Lanka Cricket Board’s constitution. (Daily Mirror online)

Most dangerous culprits will elect to board. Only in Sri lanka send a underworld man to watch the cricket cup from board ticket. Will soon reach to ICC( International criminal council)

I bet, this is another trick to bring a Rajapakse to the top seat of the SLC. This is groundwork

Any bets on Namal being appointed the next SLC Chairman?

I would not be surprised if Doc from Kelaniya is elected.
