Folks. The Sinhala translation of Upon a Sleepless Isle drops tomorrow. If you’re in Colombo and especially if you’re at the Colombo Litfest, drop by at 11:30am.
Translator Ranshitha Kularathna and I will be chatting to Ciara Mandulee Mendis. It’s going to be fun.
your people. There is a lot of work to be done at all levels to course correct. We can’t do the same things over and over and expect different results when the cricket world around us has evolved so quickly. We haven’t adapted and the danger is irrelevance.

Not a great outing by @OfficialSLC against England. The planning and execution by the bowlers were in sharp contrast to the same by the batters. Hard hands, mishara’s lack of intent and not reading the game situ or pitch cost them.
Mr Sunil Fernando passed away after a long battle with illness. He was the best batting coach I have ever worked with. Oversaw my batting from the time I was 14 till I finished my international career. His influence on so many cricketers (Murali included ) is timeless. RIP

Lot of jeopardy in the first games for everyone. Stature and form of the sides haven’t really mattered much. Tight but good win by @OfficialSLC should hit better rhythm as the tourney progresses.
Ella is ready to welcome you!
