In a shocking turn of events, top Sri Lankan batsman Tillakaratne Dilshan has turned out to be the leading Sri Lankan cricketer the ICC's Anti-corruption and Security Unit has been monitoring for alleged links with a bookmaker.
The 'Daily Mail' today claimed that Dilshan was the player named in a Sri Lankan Cricket Board report to ICC's ACSU last year after he was allegedly spotted with a suspected illegal bookmaker in a London nightclub.
The report was filed by the Sri Lankan team manager after captain Kumar Sangakkara passed on suspicions among team-mates that Dilshan had been seen with the bookie during Twenty20 World Cup in England in June last year, the newspaper claimed.
"The player concerned has been under the ICC's scanner since the Twenty20 World Cup in England in 2009," it said.
Sri Lanka Cricket had reportedly kept the entire matter away from the public spotlight though Dilshan has been investigated by Sri Lankan police. No charges though was laid on Dilshan by the Sri Lankan police.
