A special Bodhi Pooja at the Gangarama Temple, Colombo 2, will be held on Thursday 22 November at 5 p.m. to invoke blessings on popular cricket commentator and former player Tony Greig who is undergoing treatment for cancer.

Greig is one of the ardent and strongest supporters of Sri Lanka Cricket, who gave a tremendous fillip during challenging times of Sri Lanka cricket.

The event has been organised by MP Thilanga Sumathipala, who is a former President of Sri Lanka Cricket and Asian Cricket Council as well as former Director of ICC.

“Tony has demonstrated his love and passion for Sri Lanka cricket and to our country with his extraordinary flair as a commentator in no uncertain manner, winning the hearts of millions of cricket fans in our country. I have been inundated with requests from many past cricketers, administrators, sports media personnel and the cricket loving public of Sri Lanka to express our gratitude and solidarity to him in this hour of need,” Thilanga said.
