At the same time when you play politics with Cricket Murali has a duty to tell the world that you are ruining Cricket. Look at the record of our Cricket since you took over this time. You have brought it down to rock bottom. So the best is go home before you are kicked out” Commented Ananda De Silva on Facebook.

One is a Champion while the other is a Chumpion ” Wrote Gehan Malaawaratchy.
“What an idiot to be a President. As a previous post stated it was his duty at that point in his position to do what needed to be done. Trying to hang shit on Murali now is the same as dumping shit on your head as Murali is a proven legend and you are a proven donkey who does not know anything about cricket but with all due respect only how to run a bookie or gambling machine maybe, that too if you do not get others to carry out your dirty work. Cheers to Murali for having the backbone to notify the world that cricket in Sari Lanka has been screwed by politicians such as you” Gala De Kauwe.
“Mr.Sumathipala everyone has a Wright to give their suggestions to improve the game.You have even interfered in the selections during the past.we know how much greedy you are to hold this post .We know how loyal you are in politics. MURALI has brought fame to the country.Do not try to say that you did everything for him.Your political experience is not valid anymore.please allow another person to become the president.I would like to see Arjuna Ranathunge” wrote Lasantha Rodrigo.
“Murali is a world legend. What he’s said is what virtually everybody in SL is saying, so nothing new. So many frauds and wrong turns made by TS and DJ, who’s now thankfully buzzed off!” wrote Suresh Murugaser.
