SLC pays tribute to former President Upali Dharmadasa

Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has expressed its deepest sympathies on the passing of Mr. Upali Dharmadasa, former President of Sri Lanka Cricket.

During his distinguished tenure as a cricket administrator, Mr. Dharmadasa served the game in several key leadership roles, including as Vice President and President of Sri Lanka Cricket, and as Chairman of the Interim Committee.

Through his dedicated service and commitment, he made a significant contribution to the development and advancement of cricket in Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka Cricket and the country’s cricketing fraternity take this opportunity to express their sincere gratitude for Mr. Dharmadasa’s untiring efforts and invaluable service to the administration of cricket in the country.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family during this time of profound sorrow.

As a mark of respect, players participating in the Lanka Premier League matches scheduled to be played at the Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium (RDICS) on Sunday, 26 July, will wear black armbands in memory of the late cricket administrator.
