Colombo: Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) on Tuesday said it would take disciplinary action against Marvan Atapattu for describing the national selection panel as ‘Muppets headed by a joker’ but retained the former captain in the side for the ongoing Test series against Australia. The SLC said the governing body was distressed and disappointed by Atapattu’s statement. “Sri Lanka Cricket does not wish to disrupt the ongoing tour of Australia, especially as the second Test in Hobart will commence on November 16. “However, Sri Lanka Cricket is very distressed and disappointed about statements made by Atapattu on the selectors and will take necessary disciplinary action on his return to Sri Lanka,” the SLC said in a statement here. Coach Trevor Bayliss and skipper Mahela Jayawardene had supported Atapattu’s place in the team for the gruelling series against the world champion saying his experience was vital to the team’s performance. —PTI
