NEW DELHI: Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) on Thursday announced the appointment of former opener Sanath Jayasuriya as the full-time cricket consultant for a duration of one year. The decision to bring Jayasuriya on board is part of an effort to foster the all-round development of cricket in the country.
This move comes in conjunction with the recent reconstitution of the national selection panel, with former opener Upul Tharanga taking on the role of the new lead selector. The changes in both the coaching and selection domains indicate a strategic approach by SLC to enhance the overall landscape of the sport in the country.
