It is with much grief that the Board of Control for Cricket in Sri
Lanka notes the sudden demise of Anura Ranasinghe, the former Nalanda
captain, Sri Lanka Under 19 captain and Sri Lanka player at the prime
age of 42 years.
At a very young age he turned out to be an outstanding all rounder
and in view of the natural talent he possessed, he had the
distinction of representing the country whilst being in school.
Anura's contribution to Sri Lanka cricket over a period of 10 years
in which he played was with lots of dynamism and competitiveness.
The President and Members of the Executive Committee of the Board
whilst saluting with much appreciation the honour and fame he has
brought to his motherland, expresses its deepest condolences to the
bereaved family.
May he attain Nibbana
