Colombo, October 08 (Daily Mirror) - An arrest warrant has been issued for Upul Tharanga, the Chairman of Sri Lanka Cricket’s Selection Committee, after he failed to appear in court today (8).

The warrant issued by the Matale High Court is connected to a match-fixing case, which Tharanga had initially reported, involving the Legends League tournament held in Kandy.

It was reported that Tharanga is currently in the United States, where he is participating in a franchise cricket tournament.

It appears that Upul Tharanga is thinking no end of himself. If he had to be overseas he should have obtained permission from Court. Going without permission warrants the issue of an arrest warrant and it must be executed overseas if possible

If there is such charge (though not approved), he should be removed from the position, pending the court hearing outcome. His staying will damage our Cricket reputation.

It is Upul Tharanga who is alleging there is match fixing happening. He is saying others are doing it. Court should have the charge made by Upul Tharanga in writing, and not demand his be there. And if there is doubt about what Tharanga saying there is corruption and max fixing, and of course there is here, then they can bring him into the court.
