Angelo Mathews criticises ICC for second-hand treatment to Sri Lanka in terms of Test allocation – India TV

India TV News  

Sri Lanka's veteran all-rounder Angelo Mathews has slammed the ICC for second-hand treatment to his side in Test cricket as the islanders are scheduled to play just four Test matches in 2025. Sri Lanka, who played 13 Tests in the current World Test Championship cycle are scheduled to play Australia in January, will only play Bangladesh at home in June and that's that for the year for them. Sri Lanka are scheduled to play India, West Indies and Pakistan in a total of six Tests in 2026 before ending their WTC 2025-27 cycle in New Zealand and at home against South Africa. “Absolutely shocking to hear that Sri Lanka is only playing 4 test matches this entire year including the Aus Tests this month," Mathews wrote on X while expressing his disbelief and shock.
