The ICC has confirmed the event technical committee of the ICC World Twenty20 2010 has approved a replacement player for Shashikala Siriwardane in the Sri Lanka women’s squad.
The confirmation was conveyed to Sri Lanka Cricket on behalf of the event technical committee on Sunday. Chamari Polgampola will replace Siriwardene who has an illness and has been declared unfit by her board. SLC chose to seek a replacement for the entire event, which runs from 5 to 16 May. For an injured or ill player to receive a replacement, it requires a written submission to the event technical committee along with a diagnosis from a medical practitioner as to the extent of the injury or illness. Once replaced, a player cannot return to the squad.
As with all players in the tournament, the eligibility of a replacement player is subject to approval by the ICC before that player can be officially added to the squad.
The event technical committee of the ICC World Twenty20 2010 consists of David Richardson (ICC, chairman), Robert Bryan (Tournament Director), Campbell Jamieson (IDI representative), Tony Howard (WICB representative), Alan Wilkins (independent nomination) and Sanjay Manjrekar (independent nomination).
Sri Lanka plays its first match in the tournament on 6 May against Pakistan at Warner Park, St Kitts.
