No-ball incident: Sangakkara takes full responsibility

Dambulla (Sri Lanka), August 18: Sri Lankan captain Kumar Sangakkara today took full responsibility for the ‘no-ball’ incident during his team’s tri-series match against India and said his Board will take appropriate action if any player is found guilty.

“I regret what happened, we need to take responsibility as a team. The incident is up to the Board to take a decision.

The Board has said they will take action. I spoke my mind out to the team on the whole incident. Now it’s up to cricket board to decide what way we should go,” Sangakkara told a press conference ahead of his side’s tri-series match against New Zealand tomorrow.

“The Board has instructed team manager for an inquiry. I have made my views known to the Board and the manager. I don’t think there’s anything more can be expected from us as a team.
