Sri Lanka's Chandana quits in disgust

COLOMBO: All-rounder Upul Chandana, one of Sri Lanka's 1996 world cup winning team, on Wednesday announced he had quit International Cricket and accused the selectors of treating him shabbily.

"I was hoping to get selected for the World Cup after doing consistently well in domestic cricket. It did not happen and when I was not selected for the Twenty20 I thought I should quit playing International Cricket", Chandana, 35 said.

"I feel I was treated very unfair by the administrators", said the leg spinner, who had a season with the English county Gloucestershire.

The lower-order batsman played 16 Tests between 1999 and 2005 and 147 One Day Internationals between 1994 and 2007.
