October 8, 2024   03:56 pm

The Matale High Court has issued an arrest warrant against the Chairman of the Selection Committee at Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC), former Sri Lankan cricketer Upul Tharanga today (08).

The arrest warrant has reportedly been issued over failure to appear before the court pertaining to a match-fixing case during the 2024 Legends Cricket Tournament. 

However, the relevant case has been filed by Tharanga himself and he has left the country for cricketing purposes without informing the court in that regard.
