Cricket and Champions Trophy

Sri Lanka continues efforts to host the Champions Trophy with ongoing negotiations and discussions about hosting rights. The topic includes references to cricket figures and the Sri Lanka Cricket Board's initiatives.

So Sri Lanka's hosting the Champions Trophy the way I host dinner parties—lots of hopeful talks, zero confirmed dates, and everyone's just waiting to see if it actually happens. Meanwhile Kumar Sangakkara's out here being called a "legend" for recognizing what cricket needs, which apparently is more tournaments nobody can nail down the logistics for.
