As I predicted on my own that Shanaka is made captain when even he does not deserve a place in the ODI team is confirmed by Andrew F’do’s article. Shanaka has no support from the team. A new captain should be looked into satisfy all after the Indian series. Read this by Andrew ”Shanaka has not been a consistent member of the Sri Lankan XI for the past three years. In ODIs, he has 28 appearances, 611 runs, and 10 wickets. In T20Is, those numbers are 43 games, 548 runs and and 11 wickets. These are not particularly encouraging statistics.
There is a train of thought within the Sri Lanka team that Shanaka has only been made captain because he cut a deal with either the cricket board or its technical advisory committee in agreeing to sign the tour contracts the board was offering. Whatever the exact nature of Shanaka’s relationship with the board, whatever his own motivations, he is now due to lead a team that does not fully believe he is in charge for purely cricketing reasons.”
The entire cricket board along with selectors have to be sacked. They keep doing these stupid things.
