CBC is reporting that participants in Saturday’s T20 exhibition are still awaiting payment.
..while the players put on a good game in Toronto, several suggested to CBC News that they would be unlikely to return to Canada any time soon as a result of the non-payment issue. “It is not good for Canada and not good for Canada and cricket,” said Sanath Jayasuriya, a veteran player from Sri Lanka who spoke to CBC News about the situation. Jayasuriya said he was to receive $15,000 to play in Toronto, as well as additional funds to cover his flight from Sri Lanka.
Later in the piece Cricket Canada CEO Doug Hannum describes the situation as a “national embarrassment”.
