Colombo, June 27 (IBNS): The Sri Lanka Cricket on Tuesday said it would conduct a Disciplinary Inquiry against cricketer Lasith Malinga for repeated breach of the terms of his contract.


"Malinga has on two occasions since his return from the Champions Trophy acted in contravention of the terms of agreement which specifically barr him from making any statements to the media without the prior written consent of the Chief Executive Officer," the board said in a statement.

Accordingly it was decided upon the instance of his first infraction, on or about June 19 to take Disciplinary action, the Executive Committee having noted that Malinga, is a senior national player with experience ductus exemplo.

Subsequent to a repeated breach on or about the June  21, the Committee has expedited the said inquiry which will be conducted by a Disciplinary Panel comprised of Secretary SLC Mohan de Silva, Chief Executive Officer Ashley de Silva and Chairman Disciplinary Committee Asela Rekawa AAL.

The findings of the said hearing will be forwarded to the Executive Committee for suitable Disciplinary action.
