Your prompt attention and action on this matter will ensure the protection of the democratic process within the SLC.” is important.” Subsequently, broad principles were upheld by the ICC to preserve the principles of cricket administration and protect the reputation of the game in Sri Lanka.”
Silva demanded action from the ICC, saying that the country’s Parliament is engaged in a debate which focuses on the autonomy of SLC and it has been organized by Sports Minister Roshan Ranasinghe. Silva also claimed threats to the homes and families of SLC elected members, saying the minister was attempting to take SLC money for purposes unrelated to cricket.
The letter was addressed to the ICC President, copies of which were also sent to other members of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), including Secretary Jay Shah. After this letter, ICC decided to suspend SLC on 10 November.
On suspending the SLC, the ICC said, “The ICC Board met today and decided that Sri Lanka Cricket is in serious breach of its obligations as a member, particularly in its failure to manage its affairs autonomously.” And there is a need to ensure that there is no government interference in this.” The ICC Board will take a decision on the terms of the suspension in due course.”
