The same applies to Sri Lanka as well. 1) Let the rupee depreciate naturally to act as a price signal 2) Avoid blanket subsidies: They mostly benefit wealthy households. 3) Use saved funds to protect vulnerable families 4) Diversify and transition youtube.com/watch?v=VlhMSHYn…

Why should a daily wage labourer, who buys perhaps 250g of sugar, 250g of dhal and 1kg of rice for the day, indirectly carry the cost of subsidising fuel for someone else’s private vehicle? linkedin.com/pulse/fuel-subs…

Fuel subsidies should protect people, not every litre

Sri Lanka’s fuel subsidy debate should not be framed as “subsidy or no subsidy.” The better question is: Who should receive the subsidy? At present, CPC is reportedly losing around Rs.

If AKD was born in the US or India, his rise to power would have been made a Netflix film by now. What a story to write. Modi's story from tea seller to PM was celebrated there. But here, it is different. They are worried about his English! What a people we have

It’s worth giving a chance to young Chamindu Wickramasinghe in the 3rd T20I instead of Shanaka. Also, SL should not rely on Wanindu’s batting. (ie: playing in all rounder spots) Whatever comes from him should consider as a bonus.

Perfectly phased chase by Sri Lanka Women's Cricket team in the final against India in the #AsiaCup. Not a team entirely depending on Chamari Athapaththu anymore.

Hope young girls like Harshitha, Vishmi, Dilhari and the rest will take Sri Lankan women’s cricket to the next level in the next decade to come.

Seriously, Sri Lanka Cricket Men’s team can learn plenty from this women’s team. When to attack, when to play the second fiddle, shot selection, how to phase a chase, the team spirit, determination. ඔලුව උදුම්මගෙන ඉන්න බක පණ්ඩිතයොන්ට චමරිගෙන් දෙන්න ඕන motivational speech එකක්.

Ricky Ponting on Sky Sports: "Even with so much control and hold over world cricket, India has lost yet another tournament. Money can't buy success & time and time again teams like Australia, New Zealand and Pakistan have proved that."

Yesterday: Cummins said "There is nothing more satisfying than hearing a big crowd go silent & that is the aim for us tomorrow". Today: Cummins made that happen from the front. You are a champion, Patty. 🫡
