"Recently his private life video was leaked to the media and it is very bad public perception and we don't want him to continue as a selector. He has disgraced the game and the nation," one of the SLC officials told Deccan Chronicle.

Another official confirmed to DC that he might not return as the selector after Champions Trophy. "It is quite possible that Jayasuriya may not be our selector post the Champions Trophy. We have not sent him to England for the Champions Trophy and he will not be sent there at the cost of SLC board."
