Sri Lanka Player Smoking Video in ENG vs SL: The visiting Sri Lanka team suffered a disappointing 0-3 whitewash in the three-match T20I series against England. It was a pretty humiliating performance by the entire Sri Lankan team as none of their batters or bowlers failed to leave an impact throughout the three T20I matches. The Kusal Perera-led Sri Lanka team faced some serious criticism from many former cricketers and fans due to their poor performance.

After the conclusion of the England vs Sri Lanka T20I series, it has been brought into notice that ICC Match Referee Phil Whitticase has tested positive for COVID-19. Whitticase officiated in the three-match T20I series between England and Sri Lanka. He is currently asymptomatic and will observe 10-day isolation from 25 June. Also, 7 other match officials and anti-corruption unit team members were found to come in close contact with the Match Referee and thus, they too will self-isolate for 10 days. However, the positive news is that none of the cricketers from England and Sri Lanka teams have been impacted with coronavirus.
