Sri Lanka Cricket: Citing personal reasons, Chris Silverwood has resigned from the post of head coach of Sri Lanka cricket team, the Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) announced on Thursday.

Silverwood’s resignation comes a day after former skipper Mahela Jayawardene's resignation as the consultant coach following Sri Lanka's poor show in the T20 World Cup.

Jayawardene, who was on a one-year contract from last January, resigned just after six months.
