Sri Lanka Cricket will conduct random breathalyzer tests on cricketers in the future, its President Shammi Silva said. The board has taken this decision after national Test skipper Dimuth Karunaratne was involved in an accident this Sunday under the influence of alcohol.
Accordingly, random tests will be conducted during this week’s inter-provincial cricket tournament.
“This has to stop,” said Silva. “We will conduct tests randomly starting the provincial tournament and those found guilty will receive hefty fines”
