Wickramaratne Named SLC Interim Committee Chairman, Mahanama, Sangakkara Included
Sports Minister Sunil Kumara Gamage: Former Member of Parliament and investment banker Eran Wickramaratne has been named as chairman of Sri Lanka Cricket’s (SLC) interim committee, established with an aim to run the sport’s governing body following the resignation of president Shammi Silva and his executive committee.
In the interim committee constituted by Sports Minister Sunil Kumara Gamage, former national captains Roshan Mahanama and Kumar Sangakkara have been included, so as ex‑opener Sidath Wettimuny. Administrators Thushira Radella, Avanti Colombage, Prakash Schaffter and Upul Kumarapperuma too find themselves in the committee.
The appointments mark a sweeping overhaul at Maitland Place, headquarters of SLC, after Silva and the entire executive committee officially stepped down on Wednesday amid mounting criticism of governance, financial irregularities and a decline in the national men’s team performances in recent times.
