COLOMBO (Daily Mirror)- Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) had canvassed for the suspension of Sri Lanka from the ICC, Leader of the Opposition Sajith Premadasa alleged today. 

"The SLC officials have betrayed the nation and are traitors. What ICC has been told is that SLC, a democratically elected body is under threat," Premadasa said during a discussion held at the Opposition Leader's office this evening. 

"We have also heard that Sri Lankan players are going to be suspended from the Indian Premier League as well," he added. 

"The entire nation should rise against the suspension and should play a role in restoring the lost glory where cricket is concerned," he also said.
