Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has fined former captain Dasun Shanaka $10,000 for breaching his contract by leaving a domestic match early on 2 February to play for the Dubai Capitals in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Shanaka allegedly faked a concussion to secure a substitute and later played in the UAE despite submitting a medical certificate recommending rest. 

SLC warned that failure to pay by 28 February could result in further disciplinary action.
