He has asked SLC &quot;to relieve him from national duties until further notice&quot;.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The all-rounder was not part of Sri Lanka&#39;s white-ball squad in England since he was on paternity leave. Mathews had last featured in the white-ball format against West Indies in Antigua in March this year. He had to leave the tour mid-way due to personal reasons. He featured in Sri Lanka&#39;s 1-0 Test series win over Bangladesh in May.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mathews made his international debut in 2008 and had been a very important member of the team with his all-round skills. He was appointed as captain of the Test team at 25 becoming the youngest-ever skipper of the island nation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He quit captaincy in 2017 to focus on his game. Despite being riddled with issues around form, fitness and injuries, Mathews always remained in focus.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>As of now, Mathews has played 90 Tests, 218 ODIs, and 49 T20Is for Sri Lanka.<\/p>\r\n",
