A former Sri Lankan national player and coach of the Australian team Cricket Victoria has received a harsh ban.

Details: According to ESPNcricinfo, Dulip Samaraweera has been prohibited from coaching in Australia for 20 years. He was found guilty of a serious breach of the CA Code of Conduct while working with Cricket Victoria. The misconduct involved inappropriate behavior towards a team player.

Cricket Victoria's CEO, Nick Cummins, released a statement condemning Dulip Samaraweera's actions.

Quote: "We firmly support the decision made today by the Code of Conduct Commission, which has disqualified Dulip Samaraweera for 20 years. We believe his behavior was extremely disgraceful and a betrayal of everything we stand for at Cricket Victoria," he stated.
