Expressing dismay over the action by the ICC in playing a Hindi song while the Sri Lankan team was parading under the Sri Lanka banner during the opening ceremony of the ICC Champions Trophy cricket tournament in London, Minister Wimal Weerawansa said that the Sri Lankan cricket team should have withdrawn from the tournament until the error was regretted and corrected.Amila.

In to what petty cheap things these Ministers get involved , that shows their mentality and level.
Minister Monday, 10 June 2013 05:28 AM
Mr. WW. Let cricketers play cricket. They are experts on that game. Can you only mind on your political business please? Hama ekatama kata daanawa!
malli Monday, 10 June 2013 05:46 AM
Mind your own business you good for nothing big mouth....
Damith USA Monday, 10 June 2013 05:43 AM
Ayo very soon we will have a dirty chinese anthem along with the tongue twister ceylone anthem ..people are suffering without food n proper life, this really matters much
Porky Pig Monday, 10 June 2013 05:44 AM
Modawansa, 80% of the worlds population will not know what is Sri Lanka and where it is.
Chanu Monday, 10 June 2013 05:57 AM
I'm so disgusted and I can't comment as a result.
ah bola Monday, 10 June 2013 05:59 AM
So they feel better when they immigrate to The US (mainly as asylum seekers) and then the National anthem is sung in plain English in every event? What a joke.
Shutmymouth Monday, 10 June 2013 06:14 AM
Another silly tempest in a tea pot!! Probably, just an unfortunate mistake.
Banda Monday, 10 June 2013 06:16 AM
Don't worry too much mate.You are already a real joker both nationally and internationally....
wasanthi Monday, 10 June 2013 06:19 AM
Dear minister we are with you. Sir start signature camping against ICC.
oshanda Monday, 10 June 2013 06:22 AM
what a joker
Concerned Citizen Monday, 10 June 2013 06:21 AM
Sri Lanka quite rightly made a strong protest and asked for a reason for this glaring error. However, we must not give up our rights to incompetent organisers of the event by boycotting. Mathews is correct to play on and not get involved in petty politics.
SAM putha Monday, 10 June 2013 06:49 AM
Ahhhhh come on man, dont worry,,,,,, when the English side(Heads & Members of British Parliament ie) comes for the CWHOG to SL lets play the Bangara for the buggers!!!! its that simple...
Amila. G Monday, 10 June 2013 07:04 AM
We should not be commenting on this , At all . By doing so we are getting no better than the petty minded So called Minister.
doratupala Monday, 10 June 2013 05:28 AM
As if he resigns when his cabinet colleague ties a public servant to the tree, when one of his colleagues say that he flies in the expressway at a speed of 200 km per hour, when it should be just 100 kmph. the list continues... ICC thing is not an intentional one, its just a careless mistake.
W.Gamlath Monday, 10 June 2013 07:14 AM
God bless Sri Lanka

Tuan Monday, 10 June 2013 11:15 AM
Ban all the cricketers and send the BBS captained by modawansa to the Champions Trophy.
Mokka Rala Monday, 10 June 2013 11:17 AM
He is not the main goon at fault..The bigger Bosses that have appointed him and tolerate him should be responsible..Unless the Bosses themselves, think and behave like Wimal.
So How??
janaka Monday, 10 June 2013 11:26 AM
Balaya Brain Keep it up Wimal. Why didn't you comment when SJ was dancing in India for Hindi Songs.

The people of North & East will get the same feeling, when National Anthem is sung in Sinhala in the sports events.
michael Sunday, 09 June 2013 12:08 PM
True at least that way they could hv saved their dismal batting vs NZ. IPL and Arjuna Theory is 100% correct.
Arjuna Ranawana Sunday, 09 June 2013 12:12 PM
Yes. Hon. Minister ! you are very correct. They (SL Crickters) should take it serious, like our Jathika Minister. If they are not do so Your Hon. Minister start Upawasa at Thunmulla junction until ICC will ask applogy from Sri Lanka
zara Sunday, 09 June 2013 12:00 AM

Yes. Arjun Ranatunga would have done exactly that.
azonide Sunday, 09 June 2013 02:00 PM
how many points do you think විමලා would have scored for this
CROW Sunday, 09 June 2013 02:08 PM
HAS WIMAL NO OTHER WORKS ?
Dinesh Sunday, 09 June 2013 02:50 PM
He is calling the captain "spineless". He doesn't have the spine to fast unto death.....
Suq Madique Sunday, 09 June 2013 03:17 PM
Oh no! Not another 'death fast'?
Suq Madique Sunday, 09 June 2013 03:21 PM
Probably mad they didn't play one of his songs.
Huna Sunday, 09 June 2013 03:34 PM

Nadi Karunaratne Sunday, 09 June 2013 03:46 PM
Hunger strike outside Buckingham palace - for 3 hours? Take the microphone away from this individual....we want to be ruled by grown ups.
Game Kolla Sunday, 09 June 2013 03:48 PM
Oh yes good advise.... similarly ministers should resign if they can't perform their duties properly. Furthermore all corrupted ministers should leave their seats and go home.
Prof Wickramatillake Sunday, 09 June 2013 12:08 PM
What gentlemanly cricket do you know to comment?

muhammad Monday, 10 June 2013 12:00 AM

Cobra Monday, 10 June 2013 01:06 AM
Wimal should walk the talk by resigning from the govt. over the 13A issue!!!
Mutu Monday, 10 June 2013 01:28 AM
In fact all politicians who admitted that economy might collapse should resign and go home.
janak Monday, 10 June 2013 02:20 AM
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT CRICKET ?
U GONE PLAY ELLE
Bastonian Monday, 10 June 2013 02:53 AM
What north /East ???
doratupala Monday, 10 June 2013 03:24 AM
It was a mistake.
However a mistake of such nature by ICC, the world cricketing body is not accepted. They haven't still apologized for it.
sobers Monday, 10 June 2013 03:33 AM
Do not blame the captain, his diplomacy is fine, he is a gentleman not a radical politician. Leave sports alone, authorities will sort it out. What do you know about sportsmanship or diplomacy?
weera Monday, 10 June 2013 03:47 AM
What do say about the casino empire? What did you say about the Electricity tariff hike?
IOSirisena Monday, 10 June 2013 05:10 AM
spoken like a true villager who has no idea on sports whatsoever. Well done Wimal ... way to go...
Ramzeel Monday, 10 June 2013 05:21 AM
Wimal should have resigned for not removing the World Bank plug years ago.
