Bhanuka Rajapaksa’s omission from cricket team raised in Parliament

The controversy surrounding the omission of Sri Lanka cricketer Bhanuka Rajapaksa from the Sri Lanka team for the upcoming T20I series in India was raised in Parliament yesterday.

Rajapaksa was not selected for reportedly failing the skinfolds test of the fitness requirements set by Sri Lanka Cricket for national selection although he had passed the 2 km-run.
