Colombo: Former Sri Lankan cricket team captain Arjuna Ranatunga criticized Indian Cricket Board Secretary Jai Shah. Ranatunga blamed Jai Shah for the downfall of Lankan cricket. The allegation continues that Jai Shah controls Lankan cricket.
Arjuna Ranatunga’s response to the Sri Lankan media ‘Daily Mirror’. He alleged that Jai Shah was making connections with Sri Lankan Cricket Board circles with the idea of controlling and trampling Lankan cricket. Jai Shah controls Sri Lankan cricket. He also alleged that the Lankan Cricket Board is dying due to Jai Shah’s pressure.
Sri Lankan cricket is being destroyed by someone from India. Ranatunga said that Jai Shah became strong only because of his father who is the Home Minister of India.
The Sri Lankan Cricket Board’s membership was revoked by the International Cricket Council. The ICC action is pointing out that the Lankan government has interfered in the board’s activities. The ICC found that the rule that the government should not interfere in the work of the board was violated. The Lankan Cricket Board was dissolved by the government following its poor performance in the ODI World Cup. Later, with the intervention of the Appellate Court, the committee was reinstated. With this, the scene worsened. The government-opposition committee issued a joint statement demanding the resignation of SLC members.
There is an ICC rule that the administration of cricket should be independent and there should be no government interference of any kind. This has been violated in the case of the Lankan Cricket Board, according to a press release issued by the ICC.
