COLOMBO: Sri Lanka’s government has urged the national cricket board’s executive committee to make way for a new administration by this weekend, a board official told AFP on Wednesday.
Sri Lanka Cricket, which has been plagued by allegations of corruption and mismanagement, is led by Shammi Silva.
“There will be an interim administration headed by a former investment banker,” the official said, asking not to be named. “The government is responding to public anger.”
