Maybe we could start a petition and get a million signatories lol That needs to change. I don’t know how the law or politics works in SL, but could constitutional change be debated and passed in parliament? They need to enact a change to the constitution. And people need to be more visibly outraged and vocal about their frustrations with what is happening in SLC. Cricket is a source of national pride - it needs to be managed much much better. And the change needs to be enforced. 10-17-2023, 10:52 AM

I think there's a clause in the SLC constitution which dictates you need to consult the executive committee of SLC in order to make certain amendments. Parliament is an option, but the President has to influence and throw his support. The thing is SL has so many problems as a country that cricket takes a back seat. Sports minister is making an effort. Credit where it's due.

I would also argue that sports is a large contributing factor to the socio economic development of a country. I would like to hear suggestions from PJ and Jamis on how to solve the current situation. Is it all doom and gloom? 10-17-2023, 11:08 AM
We have been posting suggestions here for a decade. The system just doesn't work without constitutional changes.

Nothing short of change in sports law and SLC constitution will be a long lasting solution.
