Sri Lanka Cricket said that former India National Team Fielding Coach R. Sridhar will conduct a comprehensive 10-day fielding program to elevate the fielding standards of Sri Lankan cricketers.
The specialised program will commence today and will involve men’s and women’s national squads, Emerging squads, Premier Club players, the national Under-19 team and Women’s ‘A’ team.

The former India Fielding Coach will begin the program with the Sri Lanka national men’s team and subsequently train other squads, where he will conduct fielding drills, skill-specific training, and simulated match scenarios, to replicate game conditions. He will work closely with the National, High Performance, and club coaches during his 10-day stint with Sri Lanka Cricket.
