Star Sri Lankan all-rounder pulls out of Windies tour after father's murder
Colombo, May 25 (CRICKETNMORE) - Sri Lanka all-rounder Dhananjaya de Silva has pulled out of the national team's upcoming tour of the Caribbean after his father was shot dead near here.
De Silva's father, Ranjan, a local politician, was gunned down in a suburb south of Colombo late on Thursday, according to reports. "Sri Lanka Cricket expresses its sincere condolences on the tragic demise of Ranjan De Silva, father of the national cricketer Dhananjaya De Silva," an SLC release stated. De Silva, 26, has played 13 Tests, scoring 1066 runs at 46.34. Making a return to the Test side last year after a poor series in South Africa in 2016-2017, he found form with a century against India in Delhi under difficult conditions and followed it up with a 173 in a high-scoring first Test against Bangladesh earlier this year.
