Sri Lankan legend Aravinda de Silva admits there have been "issues with discipline" but the country which won the T20 World Cup seven years ago is on the way back, he says.

Former captain Aravinda de Silva revealed that Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has been trying for a long time to rope in Mahela Jayawardene as the coach of their U-19 side.

Aravinda de Silva has said the Sri Lankan players should focus on winning games for the country rather than complaining about players' contracts.

Officials said the decision was taken to cancel the charity cricket match after Upul Tharanga tested positive for coronavirus.

Spin bowling legend Muttiah Muralitharan and former captain Kumar Sangakkara have been named in the four-member Sri Lanka cricket committee.

A right-handed middle-order batsman, Graham Cowdrey represented Young England before making his county debut in 1984, and he was a regular member of the Kent side for more than a decade.
