SRI LANKA have been suspended from all international cricket for "serious breaches" of rules.<\/p>\n

The country managed just two wins at the Cricket World Cup with seven defeats to leave them ninth in the table.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That prompted the country's sports minister to fire the entire Sri Lanka Cricket board.<\/p>\n

And now the team has been banned from all formats with immediate effect in a crushing blow.<\/p>\n

The news also affects England, who lost by eight wickets against Sri Lanka last month.<\/p>\n

Ben Stokes' Test team were due to host Sri Lanka for a three-match series in England next summer – with fixtures at Old Trafford, Lord's and The Oval.<\/p>\n

The ICC said: "The International Cricket Council (ICC) Board has suspended Sri Lanka Cricket\u2019s membership of the ICC with immediate effect.<\/p>\n

"The ICC Board met today and determined that Sri Lanka Cricket is in serious breach of its obligations as a Member, in particular, the requirement to manage its affairs autonomously and ensure that there is no government interference in the governance, regulation and\/or administration of cricket in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n

"The conditions of the suspension will be decided by the ICC Board in due course."<\/p>\n

Sri Lanka's sports minister Roshan Ranasinghe sacked the entire Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) board on Monday following their dismal World Cup campaign in India – which included Angelo Matthews' historic wicket.<\/p>\n

An interim committee was put in place but Sri Lankan courts effectively reinstated the board a day later in a bizarre twist.<\/p>\n

Now ESPN report the ICC slapped the SLC with the heavy punishment on the grounds of extensive government interference – including in the finance and national team matters. <\/p>\n

Sri Lanka's length of ban has not been specified, suggesting they are suspended indefinitely. <\/p>\n

The ICC met online to discuss the Sri Lanka situation ahead of their next quarterly meeting from November 18-21, where the next steps are expected to be determined.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe were suspended on the same grounds in 2019. <\/p>\n

In similar circumstances, the Zimbabwean sports and recreation commission replaced the entire cricket board.<\/p>\n
