New Delhi: ICC has suspended Sri Lanka’s star all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga for the upcoming two-match Test series against Bangladesh for breaching the ICC code of conduct. The decision came after Hasaranga’s decision to return to Test cricket having retired from the format last year.

Hasaranga was suspended for showing dissent at an umpire’s decision during the third ODI against Bangladesh here on Monday and it is a big setback for Sri Lanka as they were banking on the experienced Hasaranga to trouble the hosts’ batters in the longer format of the game.

During the third and final ODI of the series against Bangladesh, Hasaranga was found guilty of breaching article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “showing dissent at an Umpire’s decision during an International Match.”
