The man is said to have been in an intoxicated state and lost his mobile phone
which was the propriety of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC).
He is called a “former Minister’s catcher” and was thrashed twice when he
came into contact with the wrong people, according to an SLC source. He is also
a tale-carrier and has been recommended for a possible promotion and his conduct
at the Monday’s Press conference had been an embarrassment to SLC officials
who were present in full force at the launch of the Pakistan-Sri Lanka series.
Meanwhile it has also been reported that at an emergency meeting it was
discussed to shift the first Test from Galle to Dambulla due to wet conditions
but the plan was shelved after some officials became worried that it would
amount to a tribute to former SLC president Thilanga Sumathipala who built the
stadium.
But SLC denied Dambulla was discussed. “We looked at options like the SSC but
Dambulla was not one of them. The match will be played in Galle as originally
scheduled”, said SLC secretary Nishantha Ranatunga.
