NEW DELHI: Sri Lanka's cricket captain, Kusal Mendis, has voiced concerns over the International Cricket Council's (ICC) suspension of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC), fearing potential repercussions on the national team's upcoming fixtures and preparations for the men's U19 World Cup in early 2024.
Despite a turbulent exit from the World Cup, losing seven of nine matches in India, Sri Lanka have a packed schedule ahead, beginning with Zimbabwe's tour to the island nation in January-February. The 2024 men's U19 World Cup, set to kick off on January 13, adds urgency to the situation, with 16 teams competing.
