After keeping an eye on the matter since the suspension, the Board is now confident that SLC is no longer in violation of their membership requirements. Harin Fernando, the minister of sports, tweeted about the suspension being lifted. He promised a formal statement shortly. When Fernando's predecessor Roshan Ranasinghe dismissed the current Shammi Silva administration and appointed an interim committee led by the former captain Arjuna Ranatunga, the ICC suspended Sri Lanka in November of last year, citing political meddling.
