Sanath Jayasuriya
Former Sri Lanka skipper Sanath Jayasuriya has reacted sharply at the national team's poor show in the recently-concluded T20I series against England.
Sri Lanka couldn't cross the 130-run mark in any of the matches as England inflicted a 3-0 whitewash by winning the third match on Saturday.
"Very sad day for Sri Lankan cricket. The situation is critical. We need immediate measures to save cricket," Jayasuriya wrote on Twitter.
