Court of Appeal to hear Sri Lanka Cricket election appeals on Wednesday

The cricket elections scheduled for February 21 now hang in the balance after three candidates filed action in the Court of Appeal challenging the Sports Minister’s decision to appoint an Appeals Advisory Committee. The cases are fixed for February 20. Mohan de Silva and Ravin Wickremaratne have challenged the committee’s rejection of their nominations while Shammi Silva has challenged Jayantha Dharmadasa’s eligibility to contest election.
