Hosting Series With India's 'Second-String' Team Is An Insult: Arjuna Ranatunga
Former SL Captain, Arjuna Ranatunga criticizes Sri Lanka Cricket for agreeing to host a series with India’s "second-string" team. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will not be a part of the Sri Lanka tour. India, for the first time, will play two different games with two teams in different parts of the world. "The "second-string" Indian team for the limited-overs series is an insult to SL Cricket," said Ranatunga.
