Former Sri Lanka cricketer Samaraweera gets new 10-year Australia ban

The Hindu  

Australian cricket slapped a 10-year ban on Sri Lankan Test player Dulip Samaraweera on Friday for alleged “inappropriate behaviour” -- to run concurrently with a 20-year suspension he is already serving. Cricket Australia’s Conduct Commission banned him in September from holding any position within Australian cricket for 20 years, but another claim has surfaced. “Cricket Australia Conduct Commission has made a determination in relation to a further allegation of inappropriate behaviour against Dulip Samaraweera,” it said. “Samaraweera denied the allegations but chose not to participate in the investigation and subsequent Conduct Commission hearing.” The commission, which gave no further details of the allegations, said the 10-year penalty would run concurrently with his 20-year ban.
