A disappointed Arjuna Ranatunga has expressed his views regarding the current sorry state of Sri Lanka Cricket, holding a press briefing today.
The former skipper who has been vocal about changing the domestic structure of cricket and administration system, echoed the same views today.
“I am reiterating again today – to develop the game, change the administration. Appoint an interim committee. Change the constitution” he said
Ranatunga also commented about the importance of having strong sports ministers to reflect these changes.
“Unfortunately, the people who are forever in the cricket administration get the sports minsters also to dance to their tune, I don’t know how”
“We expected the new sports minister to make huge changes. But he’s also the same. He seems worst than his predecessors. I want to tell today that Namal Rajapaksa is failed in cricket, I am not going to judge him on other sports as of yet” Arjuna went on to say.
“This government doesn’t want to rebuild Cricket, they have other sports to develop” he alleged. (NewsWire)
