COLOMBO, Sept 24 (AFP): Sri Lanka's cricket board on Sunday sacked skipper Angelo Mathews on Sunday after the country's humiliating exit from the Asia Cup, replacing him with Dinesh Chandimal for the upcoming England tour.
The board said it asked Mathews to step down as captain of the ODI and T20 teams to clear the way for Chandimal to lead Sri Lanka during the tour.
