Sri Lanka “sold” the 2011 World Cup final to India, the country’s former sports minister said reviving one of cricket’s most explosive match-fixing claims.
Mahindananda Aluthgamage, who was sports minister at the time, is the second senior figure to allege the final was fixed.
1996 World Cup-winning skipper Arjuna Ranatunga made a similar allegation in 2017.
Former Sri Lanka star players Mahela Jayawardene and then Skipper Kumar Sangakkara are on the defensive - they have asked for evidence after Aluthgamage alleged that team's 2011 World Cup final against India played in Mumbai was fixed.
