Sri Lanka Parliament Passes Resolution To Sack Cricket Board After Cricket World Cup 2023 Debacle - sports.ndtv.com - India - Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka Parliament Passes Resolution To Sack Cricket Board After Cricket World Cup 2023 Debacle

In another twist, the Sri Lankan parliament on Thursday unanimously passed a resolution, calling for the sacking of the country's cricket governing body, with both the ruling and opposition parties supporting it. The main opposition party leader Sajith Premadasa moved the resolution titled 'the removal of the corrupt SLC (Sri Lanka Cricket) management' which was seconded by the senior government minister Nimal Siripala de Silva. The parliament's approval came two days after the Court of Appeal restored the SLC management headed by Shammi Silva on Tuesday. On Monday, Sports Minister Roshan Ranasinghe sacked the SLC management and appointed former World Cup-winning captain Arjuna Ranatunga as head of a seven-member interim committee to govern the cricket board.

New Zealand vs Sri Lanka, Cricket World Cup 2023: New Zealand All But Through To Semi-Finals With Big Win

Trent Boult's rediscovery of his magic with new ball fuelled New Zealand's frantic five-wicket victory over a wretched Sri Lanka and kept their World Cup semifinals dreams intact in Bengaluru on Thursday. Daryl Mitchell (43 off 31 balls) milked the sound platform given by openers Devon Conway (45 off 42 balls) and Rachin Ravindra (42 off 34 balls) with their 86-run stand as the Kiwis hunted down the target of 172 in 23.2 overs. The result helped them to snap a four-match losing streak in the event, and it was also the perfect culmination of the demolition job started by Boult with his outstanding three-wicket burst (3/37).

Cricket World Cup 2023 Points Table: How New Zealand's Win Impacts Pakistan And Afghanistan's Top 4 Dreams

Pakistan and Afghanistan were both dealt a massive blow in the race for Cricket World Cup 2023 semi-finals as New Zealand cruised to a five-wicket win over Sri Lanka on Thursday. As a result, New Zealand now have 10 points from 9 matches with a Net Run Rate of +0.743. That means Pakistan, who currently are fifth with 8 points from 8 matches, will have to win their final game against England with a massive margin. According to calculations, Pakistan will have to win by 287 runs if they bat first and in case of chasing, they will have to win with 284 balls remaining. Afghanistan (with a NRR of -0.338) is virtually out of the semi-finals race with their NRR being the worst in comparison to New Zealand and Pakistan.

"Not Your Backyard...": India Pacer Blasts Angelo Mathews Over 'Timed Out' Debate. Then Deletes Post

Indian cricket team fast bowler Jaydev Unadkat was extremely critical of Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews over the 'Timed Out' controversy in Cricket World Cup 2023. Mathews became the first cricketer ever to be dismissed 'Timed Out' and that led to a massive debate involving the 'spirit of cricket'. Mathews took to social media to give proof that he was able to reach the crease in time but a broken helmet strap did not allow him to take strike. According to an ESPNCricinfo report, umpire Richard Illingworth informed Mathews that he had 30 seconds left when the Sri Lankan batter walked in to bat against Bangladesh.

Pakistan are not having an ideal ODI Cricket World Cup campaign as the 1992 champions lost four out of their eight matches and are on the brink of elimination. With only one match remaining in their league stage, Pakistan will be giving their best efforts to clinch a big victory against England, who are already out of the contention. Due to the team's dismal show at the World Cup, skipper Babar Azam has been receiving a lot of backlash as many former cricketers have criticised him for his poor captaincy. Apart from leading, Babar's performance with the bat has also not been up to the mark.
