Pramodya Wickramasinghe, the former Sri Lankan cricketer and chairman of the cricket selection committee, said that the Sri Lankan cricket team will win the next ODI World Cup. He said that he participated in the World Cup held in India this year with the hope of winning the World Cup for the Sri Lankan team. He added that he was not going to resign as chairman of the selection committee due to the poor performance of the team.
The Sri Lankan team finished 12th in the World Cup qualifiers held in Zimbabwe. But after that tournament they rose to 9th place and the team entered the World Cup tournament with that winning spirit. But a not so good tournament awaited them.
Lanka, who had a miserable performance in the World Cup, finished ninth in the points table. Sri Lanka also failed to qualify for the 2025 Champions Trophy cricket.
The Sri Lankan government expelled the Lankan Cricket Board after the poor performance. But the court intervened and stayed the government action. After this, the ICC suspended the cricket board due to government interference in cricket.
