Fast bowler Dushmantha Chameera will be returning to Sri Lanka for treatment after sustaining an injury.

Sri Lanka Cricket has appointed Kent coach Simon Willis to the post of high performance manager. Willis - who has been involved at Kent for 23 years, becoming the county's high performance director in 2009 - will oversee SLC's cricket academy based in Khettarama and play a key role in identifying talent and developing cricketers within the Sri Lankan system. He takes up his new position on June 1, having been specifically sought out for this job by the board.

Anurag Thakur was unanimously elected as the youngest Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president post-Independence, while Ajay Shirke was chosen as Secretary in a smooth change of guard at a time when the world's richest Board is sailing through choppy waters.

But when, after a two-and-a-half hour rain delay on the third afternoon at Headingley, England's coach chose to address the team huddle before the resumption of their afternoon's work, it was clear from his animated expression that his charges' standards hadn't reached the levels he expects in this new full-throttle era.

The Sri Lanka cricketers currently touring England have expressed their solidarity with the flood-affected citizens back at home, a release from SLC states.
