Miffed by the no ball controversy, SLC cracked the whip on its players by suspending spinner Suraj Randiv for one ODI match and striking a fine on Thillakaratne Dilshan for his role in grudging Virender Sehwag a century.
Skipper Kumar Sangakkara was also warning and has been advised to ensure that repetition of such incidents do not occur in future.
"Suraj Randiv has been suspended for the next match against New Zealand and his match fee for the India Vs Sri Lanka match on August 16, 2010, has been forfeited," SLC said in a statement.
" Thillakaratne Dilshan's suggestion in this issue has resulted in his match fee for the same match also being forfeited."
"Furthermore, Skipper Sangakkara, too has been advised to make sure that repetition of such incidents do not occur, where disrepute will be brought to the game of Cricket, affecting the spirit of the game," the statement added.
The conclusion to take disciplinary action against the players was taken by the 6-member committee which meets this afternoon to take action on the references of team manager who probed the 'no ball' controversy.
"SLC is extremely proud of its team and their achievements over the years. It is of paramount importance to maintain the discipline of the Gentlemen's game, especially with Sri Lanka Cricket being winners of the 'ICC Spirit of the Game' award for two consecutive years," the statement said.
