This is diplomacy at work, unlike the previous minister's bull in the chinashop approach (which SP actively seemed to encourage).

it is good news to hear that lifting the ban is under consideration. If the lifting is subject to conditions that SLC must account every cent received from ICC, that will benefit out cricket

The crooks are talking with the shrewd politicians Amidst all controversies The international cricket is governed by India Thus the cricket playing countries can’t go beyond India. Indian cricket board is retaining the supremacy of world cricket not only that certain Indian betting ruffians and gambling tycoons keep the world cricket under their grip. Therefore India will lift the cricket ban on Srilanka just after either next presidential election or general election is declared

ICC is a corrupt organization dominated by the corrupt Indian Cricket Board. ICC must continue with the ban on corrupt SLC.
