Angelo Mathews: In limited-overs cricket, Mathews’ general skills are almost indispensable. When he picked up a quad in the semifinals of the 2011 World Cup. He forced three changes to the XI. Which he played in the final, as the team sought the balance that it offers on its own.
He began his international career with the ambition to become a true all-rounder. But since then he has prioritized hitting him and plays effectively as a hitting specialist on the test team.
Angelo Mathews could be ready to return to the Sri Lankan squad after making another selection. Although there has been no official communication from Sri Lanka Cricket or Mathews.
ESPNcricinfo believes that Mathews SLC emailed his intentions and that the board of directors will make a final decision on the matter at a meeting on Tuesday.
Mathews was unavailable for screening earlier this year and said he was unhappy with the treatment he and other seniors received during a month-long hiatus. Under the core contracts offered by the board of directors, Mathews was going to accept a pay cut in the order of $ 50,000 (approximately LKR 99.50,000).
During that time, Mathews, along with fellow seniors Dimuth Karunaratne and Dinesh Chandimal, had also been removed from limited sites as Sri Lanka focused on a youth review of its white ball roster.
By the time the contract dispute was resolved. Mathews had already made his dissatisfaction clear and excluded himself from the draft, while a possible retirement was rumored. Since then, Chandimal has returned to the Sri Lanka limited team. And Durham has left Sri Lanka‘s focus on the experience.
If Mathews does return to Sri Lanka. His first appearance will likely be a test streak at home against the West Indies in November. Followed by the Lanka Premier League in December.
