Prabath Jayasuriya and Emma Lamb will be awarded the ICC Player of the Month for July.
The 30-year-old left-arm spinner Prabhat Jayasuriya, who won a Test debut in the second Test match against Australia recently, won the ICC Player of the Month award for July by the International Cricket Council.
Sri Lankan spinner Prabhat Jayasuriya won the ICC Player of the Month award after defeating England’s great batsman Jonny Bairstow and France’s rising batsman Gustave McCain who was nominated for the ICC Player of the Month for July.
In the second Test match against Australia, Sri Lanka was able to win the match by an innings and 39 runs and end the series in a draw as Prabath took six wickets for 118 runs in the first innings and six wickets for 59 runs in the second innings.
In the first test match against Pakistan, he managed to take five wickets in the first innings, equaling a world record. And due to the fact that he did not get one more wicket in the second innings, he missed the chance of being the only player who took five wickets in the first four innings. However, he managed to take nine wickets for 217 runs in the two innings in that match.
However, in the second Test match against Pakistan, he took three wickets for 80 runs in the first innings and took five wickets for 117 runs in the second innings, which helped Sri Lanka win by 246 runs.
When asked about this victory, he did not forget to express his gratitude to his fans, teammates, and coaches as well as his family and everyone who supported him for this.
Prabhat Jayasuriya has so far taken 29 wickets in three Test matches and two ODIs. Also, England’s emerging all-rounder Emma Lamb was named the ICC player of the month in July by passing England player Nat Sciver and Indian fast bowler Renuka Singh.

Fresh details reveal dual agreements, silent acceptance, and a looming registration problem ahead of the Champions League
Colombo – June 17, 2025:
The player registration controversy surrounding Mohamed Sahi has intensified, as newly uncovered information confirms the existence of two separate agreements signed by the player — one with New Star SC and another with Crystal Palace FC Gampola, both for the 2025/26 season.
The Timeline of Conflict
- On January 15, 2025, Mohamed Sahi received a release from his former club Eravur YSS, stating that he would be joining Crystal Palace FC.
- This release letter was shared via WhatsApp with Crystal Palace, but the original document was handed over to New Star SC, who then registered the player for the 2025/26 season based on a contract signed on January 16 for LKR 85,000.
- Later in February, Sahi went on to sign another contract — this time with Crystal Palace FC, reportedly for LKR 215,000, including two advance payments: LKR 35,000 and LKR 45,000 to his father’s account.
This sequence raises serious concerns about whether the player fully understood his obligations or whether both clubs failed to clarify the status of the original registration.
Crystal Palace Questions: Silence from New Star
Despite publicly announcing the signing of Mohamed Sahi on social media in February, New Star SC remained silent. No objections were raised until the issue surfaced during I League scrutiny.
This inaction has sparked public questions:
- Why didn’t New Star respond immediately if the player was already under contract with them?
- Was there an oversight, or did they expect the issue to resolve quietly?
I League vs Champions League Impact
While the situation has had no direct impact on the I League, given that New Star SC registered the player first and the I League is an invitational tournament not governed by the FFSL, Sahi only featured under New Star during the competition. However, the matter gains greater significance in the lead-up to the Sri Lanka Champions League, where both New Star SC and Crystal Palace FC are reported to have submitted player registrations for Mohamed Sahi, potentially triggering a registration conflict.
This raises the risk of:
- Duplicate entries under the same player ID
- Last-minute disqualifications or disputes
- Administrative confusion for tournament organizers
A Potential Settlement?
In an attempt to ease tensions, sources close to New Star SC have confirmed that Mohamed Sahi is willing to return the advance payment made by Crystal Palace FC to resolve the financial element of the issue amicably.
Final Word
While this incident is unlikely to influence the I League outcome, it exposes a flaw in inter-club communication and registration coordination. With the Champions League approaching, resolving these overlaps is essential to avoid technical complications or eligibility issues.
