SAFF කාන්තා සහ SAFF U17 තරග කාලසටහනේ වෙනසක්!!!

2022 අගෝස්තු 17 වැනි දින පැවැති දකුණු ආසියානු පාපන්දු සම්මේලනයේ විධායක කමිටු රැස්වීමේදී එළැබෙන අගෝස්තු 24 වැනිදා ආරම්භ කිරීමට නියමිත SAFF කාන්තා ශූරතාවලියේ සහ SAFF U17 ශූරතාවලියේ දිනය සංශෝධනය කිරීමට තීරණය කර ඇති අතර එම තරග 2022 අගෝස්තු 23 ට රැගෙන ඒමට තීරණය කර ඇත. FIFA විසින් ඉන්දියාවට පනවා ඇති අත්හිටුවීමේ තවත් වර්ධනයන් විය හැකි බවටද වාර්ථා වේ.

FIFA තීරණය එලෙසම පවතී නම්, 2022 සැප්තැම්බර් 5 සිට ශ්‍රී ලංකාවේ පැවැත්වීමට නියමිත SAFF U17 ශූරතාවලියේ තරඟ කාලසටහන වෙනස් කරනු ලැබේ. SAFF කාන්තා ශූරතාවලිය සම්බන්ධයෙන් ගත් කල, කණ්ඩායම් හයක් කාණ්ඩ දෙකකට බෙදා ඇති අතර, තරග කාලසටහන සහ කණ්ඩායම් ස්ථානගත කිරීම එලෙසම පවතිනු ඇත.

මෙම රැස්වීමේදී නේපාල පාපන්දු සංගමයේ ප්‍රධාන ලේකම් සහ ශ්‍රී ලංකා පාපන්දු සම්මේලනයේ සභාපතිවරයා තරගාවලි සුදානම් කිරීම් පිළිබඳව දැනුම් දුන් අතර තරගාවලිය සාමකාමීව පැවැත්වීමට වගබලා ගන්නා බවට සහතික විය.

මෙම රැස්වීමේදී 2023 වසර සඳහා තරඟ දින දර්ශනය ද අනුමත කරගන්නා ලදී. තරඟ දින දර්ශනය 2023 සහ 2024 සඳහා AFC තරඟ දින දර්ශනයට අනුකූල නිර්මාණය කර ඇත.

පහත දැක්වෙන තරඟ FIFA ඉදිරි කාලසටහන් යටතේ පැවැත්විය යුතුය:

SAFF U20 කාන්තා ශූරතාවලිය (3-13 පෙබරවාරි 2023/ තාවකාලික)
SAFF U17 කාන්තා ශූරතාව (10-20 මාර්තු 2023/ තාවකාලික)
SAFF U19 ශූරතාව (ජූලි-අගෝස්තු 2023/ තාවකාලිකව)
SAFF U16 ශූරතාව (සැප්තැම්බර්-ඔක්තෝබර් 2023/ තාවකාලිකව)

Nuwan Thushara Set to Miss IPL 2026 After SLC NOC Refusal

Published

on

By

Nuwan Thushara is set to miss the upcoming IPL 2026 season in a significant setback for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), after Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) declined to issue him a No Objection Certificate (NOC).

The decision comes following SLC’s latest policy requiring all centrally contracted players to meet strict fitness standards before being cleared for overseas franchise leagues. Thushara reportedly failed to reach the required fitness benchmarks, leading to uncertainty over his participation and eventual exclusion.

RCB had secured the services of the Sri Lankan pacer for approximately INR 1.6 crore, viewing him as a valuable addition to their pace attack. However, his absence could now force the franchise to rethink their squad composition ahead of the tournament.

Interestingly, reports indicate that Thushara is not carrying any injury and remains available to bowl. Despite this, concerns over his overall fitness levels falling short of SLC’s criteria have ultimately ruled him out of the competition.

During his stint with RCB, Thushara featured in just one match, largely serving as a backup option. He made a notable impact in that appearance, returning figures of 1 for 26 with an impressive economy rate of 6.50, showcasing his potential when called upon.
