If the Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) sources are to be believed, Rajapaksa has already handed over his retirement letter to the cricket administration. However, the reports also claim that the Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) is yet to make any decision regarding Bhanuka Rajapaksa’s retirement and the board hasn’t accepted Rajapaksa’s retirement letter.
Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) was busy interviewing candidates to replace former Head Coach Mickey Arthur, whose contract was not extended beyond the two years he was first hired for. The Mahela Jayawardena-led six-member selection panel interviewed six out of eight shortlisted candidates on Friday. The selection panel initially drew a list of 17, out of the many applications received after the post was advertised early last month.
This was trimmed down to eight, following careful consideration of their key attributes. However, former South African cricketer Lance Klusener, who was among the shortlisted candidates pulled out citing personal reasons. Klusener was Afghanistan’s head coach during the recent T20 World Cup in UAE and was among those 15 foreigners who tried for the post.
