Ranjan Madugalle to be match referee for India-SL series; Dharmasena among five umpires

COLOMBO: World cricket's most experienced match referee Ranjan Madugalle will be in charge of the six-match white ball series between India and Sri Lanka starting on July 18.

Former Sri Lanka captain Madugalle is the chief match referee of ICC and the on-field umpires will be headed by Elite panel official Kumar Dharmasena.

Ever since international cricket resumed in COVID times, the ICC has allowed home boards to have their own match referees and umpires to cut down on travelling and other logistical issues.

Dharmasena will be assisted ICC International panel umpires Lyndon Hannibal, Prageeth Rambukwella, Ravdeendra Wimalasiri and Ruchira Palliyaguruge.
