Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has announced the postponement of domestic tournaments due to the inclement weather conditions experienced in Sri Lanka.

According to a statement by the SLC, the decision to postpone the ongoing domestic tournaments has been taken by the SLC’s Tournament Committee.

The affected tournaments are :
– The Major Club T20 Tournament  
– Tier ‘B’ T20 Tournament  
– Governors Trophy

Sri Lanka Cricket further said that the revised schedules will be announced in due course.

Prem Thakkar, the Indian owner of the Galle Marvels franchise in the Lanka T10 League, has been sentenced to two years in prison, suspended for 10 years, after pleading guilty to a match-fixing charge under Sri Lanka’s Prevention of Offences Related to Sports Act.

Thakkar was also fined Rs. 6 million and ordered to pay Rs. 1 million in compensation. In addition, the Kandy High Court has granted a request by the ICC Anti-Corruption Unit to download and examine data from Thakkar’s mobile phone as part of ongoing investigations.

The Attorney General filed the indictment earlier this year, accusing Thakkar of attempting to corrupt West Indies cricketer Andre Fletcher by offering him incentives to influence the outcome of a game involving Galle Marvels during the Lanka T10 League in December 2024.
