Former Sri Lanka captain Marvan Atapattu has called for a complete social media ban for national cricketers, arguing that online distractions are affecting players’ focus and professionalism.
Speaking to the media, Atapattu said cricketers who cannot stay away from social media should reconsider their commitment to the national side.
“If players feel they need social media, they should retire from cricket. When you are representing your country, your focus should be only on your performance and preparation” he said.
Atapattu, who led Sri Lanka across all formats and is regarded as one of the country’s most disciplined players. (Newswire)
