Cricket had 8 good teams in the late 90s. Down to 6 since SL and WI declined. I guess they only really care about these 6. Also, SL became a pain in the arse thanks to those letters. ICC board probably thought let's suspend them and get it over with.
They won't have any issue if a new constitution is passed by the supreme court. Parliament's job is to pass a new sports law to facilitate this. They can't mess with the SLC constitution.
Are they currently working on those lines? Like you said before, our team has to perform well to gain ICC's respect. Our players need to know that too, because they don't play like it is their professional job. If David Warner at 37 could run like that to stop boundaries, why can't our 20 to 30 age group players run half as good as Warner does? We also need to punish those who were playing video games while on official duty. They are supposed to watch opposition player videos, talk to coaches, talk to video analysts and focus on strategies during tours, and leave those fun games to be played while off duty at home.
Someone has to take this shit seriously and communicate that to our players. During that press where Mahela mostly spoke, players looked like some school kids got caught for cutting school and found in a cinema hall during school hours and now waiting for principal's lecture and punishment.
I think our players need coaches and managers who enforce discipline than being cool and soft with them.
One reason I can't really give a shit about SLC drama is because of this very reason. The players don't seem like responsible adults. From Shanaka and KJP looking like they are about to cry at every press conference, the dumb shits they do off the field to their body languge when things don't go well to their shot selections it doesn't set well with me. They all act like 14 to 17 year old high school kids.

The funniest incident from the WC for me was Asalanka's shot in the SL v NED match. I think Sadeera even said something like bat out the 3 deliveries of the last over from that off spinner who was getting turn and bounce. Went for the big sweep 15 seconds later, the same stroke he had failed to connect a few times. That was hilarious.

Hope Hasaranga doesn't get reprimanded or something lol. That clip has generated more views in 30 minutes than any other clip they have posted in the last 6 hours. I knew they'd love that.
