Look like all hell breaking loose.
Minister Thursday, 07 April 2011 05:00 AM
Master, we totally agree with your comments!
Gamaya Thursday, 07 April 2011 05:11 AM
good move. in short term our cricket team will suffer but in a long term we will get strong young team for next world cup.
Sri Lankan Thursday, 07 April 2011 10:48 AM
Really good. Others should follow this example. These to fine gentlemen have been given two chances in last and this world cup to lead the team. They did a good job but unfortunately not enough to bring the cup. We have to find & groom a better one keep Sanga and Mahela in the team as it is necessary. We always have a weakness in Srilanka cricket that somebody have to show the door to the senior players to leave the team.
Hope they learn what is better for Srilanka cricket and leave on their own when it is time and help the national team to be a winning team as always.

Hey Are you trying to make SLC into Zimbabwe???
Hal Friday, 08 April 2011 06:14 AM
10000000>% correct
Jabos Wednesday, 06 April 2011 08:48 AM
I don't think that the decisions are politically influenced, but, keeping with the tradition of grooming another for the next WC. however, what we failed to do was to have a different Vice captain to Mahela and handed over the captancy after the WC. Nothing to do with Mahela - one of the greats of our time, but, about our policy of appointing captains - A win would not have made a difference to my knowladge, but, considering age, Sanga could go on to handle another WC. May be have a new Wicket Keeper and stay in the team only as a batsman.

Too much political interference in sports. Like everything else the game of Cricket in Sri Lanka has been politicized.
