SLC yet to approve Hasaranga and Chameera's IPL stint

On Aug 22, 2021

Wanindu Hasaranga and Dushmantha Chameera, who were announced as replacement players by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for the remainder of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 season have neither taken permission from Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) nor the board is aware of their signings.

“We have not taken any decision yet as they will have to apply for the No-Objection Certificates (NOCs). We are not aware of these players being selected, nor have they sought permission from us,” a reliable source at SLC revealed yesterday.

The source further said that the board will take a decision on the players only when the application for NOC is made before them.

Both Hasaranga and Chameera were impressive performers in last month’s Sri Lanka-India white-ball series. (Agencies)
