Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) regained its full member status of the International Cricket Council (ICC) today (Mar 02).
SLC was relegated to an observer status by the ICC owing to the delay in conducting the SLC elections.
The global governing body, in July last year also said that it would consider Sri Lanka's membership if it did not conduct the polls within six months.
However, since the elections were held within the alloted timeframe SLC President Shammi Silva participated at the ICC board meeting in Dubai as a fully recognised Director of the ICC Board.
"The ICC does not recognize political or other appointments and/or interference to national bodies as legitimate (Article 2.4 (C) (D) of the ICC Constitution)" the SLC said in a press release.
