Sri Lanka Cricket to Invest Rs. 1.5 Billion Annually in School Cricket Development

Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) will invest nearly Rs. 1.5 billion (approximately USD 4.9 million) each year to develop and promote school-level cricket across the country, Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports Sunil Kumara Gamage announced in Parliament today (24).

Responding to a parliamentary query on SLC’s support for school cricket, the Minister said the funding will be directed through the School Cricket Association to strengthen several key areas — including infrastructure development, the provision of sports equipment, and the organization of inter-school tournaments.

He added that plans are also in progress to upgrade and develop cricket grounds in multiple locations, in collaboration with the Sri Lanka Cricket Board.
