How s that? asks Sanga



After the West Indies’ pullout from the India tour due to a pay dispute and Sri Lanka Cricket's decision to fill in with a five-match ODI series, Kumar Sangakkara has expressed concerns about the SLC decision.

 

 “Our 6 weeks of pure fitness work ends abruptly. Have a week to do a months requirement of skills work before India. Planning ahead anyone?”, Sangakkara twitted.

 

According to media reports that Sri Lankan cricketers are currently under an intense fitness programme conducted by the former national rugby union skipper Chandrishan Perera. The programme was tasked at conditioning players for the busy schedule ahead leading up to next year's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

 

The current fitness programme was a sequel to a report filed by the SLC's chief operations officer Carlton Bernadus, which had raised concerns about the fitness levels and the fielding standards.

 

Sri Lanka Cricket has planned a five-match ODI series between India and Sri Lanka, to be played from 1 November 2014 following a request made by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).{jcomments on}
