Colombo: The BCCI's refusal to allow Indian players in the Sri Lankan Premier League might have left it surprised and hurt but the island nation's Cricket Board on Monday conceded that it was India on which it was banking to stay afloat financially. Sri Lanka Cricket on Monday denied that the body was facing liquidity problems but did admit that it would need “two or three tours” by Team India to manage its finances. Sujeewa Rajapaksa, the SLC treasurer, said problems arose when the SLC was forced to incur additional expenditure on hosting the World Cup after Pakistan's games were shifted to the island nation. SLC ended up spending Rs.4.4 billon — well above the estimated Rs.3.2 billion. “In the next seven to eight years, two or three Indian tours would make our investment realise in a short time,” Rajapaksa said. — PTI
