Chamika Karunaratne

Sri Lanka Cricket stated yesterday that the three-member panel inquiring into the alleged violations by nationally contracted player Chamika Karunaratne has found him guilty of breaching several clauses in the Player Agreement during the recently concluded ICC T20 World Cup held in Australia.

Karunaratne had pleaded guilty to all charges levelled against him.

Considering the seriousness of the violations committed by Karunaratne, the Inquiry Panel in its report has recommended to the Executive Committee of the SLC to strongly warn the player to refrain from further violations and to impose a punishment that will not have an impact on his cricketing career. Subsequent to the said findings and recommendations of the inquiry panel the Executive Committee of SLC has handed a one-year ban from taking part in all forms of cricket, and the said ban will be suspended for a period of one year.

Further to the said suspended sentence a fine of $ 5,000 was also imposed against Karunaratne.
