Lokuhettige suspended for corruption
Former Sri Lankan fast bowler Dilhara Lokuhettige has been charged and suspended for corruption during the first edition of the T10 league held last year, the ICC said Tuesday.
The 38-year-old has been charged with three counts of breaching the Emirates Cricket Board's anti-corruption code.
The league, with six teams playing the newest ten-overs-a-side format, was held in Sharjah.
Lokuhettige is the third Sri Lankan player charged for violating the anti-corruption code following cases last month against former captain and ex-chief selector Sanath Jayasuriya and former pacer Nuwan Zoysa.
Jayasuriya and Zoysa were charged for matches relating to the national team.
Lokuhettige is also charged for failure to disclose the full details of any approaches or invitations.
