(Photo Source: Getty Images) During Sri Lanka’s tour of New Zealand in 2016, captain Angelo Mathews had said about his teammates who were accused of misbehavior that he would not show any mercy to them and would be firm on whatever decision would be taken. The Sports Minister of Sri Lanka had expressed concern about the fact that drug addiction has increased a lot within the team and nothing good is going on in the team due to internal disputes. Matthews confirmed that an official investigation had been launched into the players’ late partying until 3 or 4 a.m. and tensions within the team and others, including interim coach Jerome Jayaratne.

If you take decisions driven by agenda then… “I batted and bowled well in the last two Lankan Premier League (LPL) seasons, but unfortunately I was not selected for the T20 World Cup and I was not even told the reason,” Mathews was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo. If you take decisions driven by agenda, things like this can happen. We couldn’t even qualify for the Champions Trophy. Angelo Mathews further said, but I believe one thing that if you practice and play with all your heart, then you can create an environment for yourself where you can perform.
