Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) yesterday appointed a five-member panel to inquire into the alleged misconduct of three cricketers Kusal Mendis, Danushka Gunathilaka and Niroshan Dickwella while touring England with the National Team.
The panel members are Justice Nimal Dissanayaka (Retired Judge of the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka), Panduka Keerthinanda, (Attorney-at-Law), Asela Rekawa (Attorney-at-Law), Uchitha Wickremasinghe (Attorney-at-Law) and Major General (Retired) M. R. W. De Zoysa.
The three players were guilty of breaching the bio-bubble ahead of the first One Day International (ODI) against England and were immediately suspended.
The breach only came to light after a Twitter video showed Mendis and Dickwella in public domain, outside of the team bio-bubble.
The three players were suspended, from all forms of cricket, until the completion of the inquiry. (Agencies)
