oneANDone Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 NEW DELHI: The IPL governing council on Tuesday decided not to field Sri Lankan players in the IPL matches to be held in Chennai due to security concerns after Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa said that her government will not permit IPL matches in the state capital that involve Sri Lankan players, umpires and even support staff for the event. "In view of the popular antipathy and anger in Tamil Nadu against the actions of the government of Sri Lanka, the state government is of the view that IPL matches involving Sri Lankan players, umpires and other officials should not be played in Tamil Nadu," Jayalalitha said in a letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. IPL Chairman Rajiv Shukla confirmed that the Lankan players will not feature in the matches to be played in Chennai and ruled out any change in the schedule of the matches. List of Sri Lankan players contracted to the eight IPL teams: Sun Risers - Hyderabad: Kumara Sangakkara Thisera Perera Kolkata Knight Riders: Sachithra Senanayake Chennai Super Kings: Akila Dananjaya Nuwan Kulasekara Delhi Daredevils: Mahela Jayawardene Jeevan Mendis Mumbai Indians: Lasith Malinga Pune Warriors: Angelo Mathews Ajantha Mendis Rajasthan Royals: Kusal Perera Royal Challengers Bangalore: Tilekaratne Dilshan Muttiah Muralitharan Source: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/ipl/news/IPL-6-No-Sri-Lankan-players-to-play-in-Chennai/articleshow/19221288.cms
