Written by Rohit Pawar

There is no functioning Cricket Board At Maitland Place These Days! After Court Of Appeal forced Thilanga Sumathipala led administration to leave the office last month in a dramatic turn of events, Sports Minister Appointee Competent Authority is running the show at SLC!

That Competent Authority Kamal Padmasiri, however, giving utmost priority to Sumathipala! As a Competent Authority he is supposed to be an independent Administrator! However, in just over three weeks, he seems to understood all the politics and manipulative things of Sri Lanka Cricket!

Recently, he was seen watching a domestic match with Sumathipala. It was the Super Provincial tournament final On June 10, and SLC CEO Ashley De Silva also joined his former boss!

The Cameramen Couldn’t caught Either Nishantha Ranatunga, Sidath Wettimuny or Jayantha Dharmadasa there. Maybe they didn’t come. Maybe Competent Authority didn’t invite them. Maybe Competent Authority don’t want to get ‘Suggestions’ from them how to run SLC, even though they are also SLC stalwart like Sumathipala. Maybe, Competent Authority feels only Sumathipala is the best person to look after for anything, and for everything!

In just over three weeks, Competent Authority has understood all the politics of Sri Lanka Cricket!
