Sri Lanka Cricket Loses 2027 ICC Women's Champions Trophy Hosting Rights, Faces $20 Million Loss
Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) faces an estimated $20 million revenue loss after losing hosting rights for the 2027 ICC Women's Champions Trophy, which has been moved to India due to ongoing government interference and the absence of an elected SLC administration. The interim committee, appointed in April after the elected body's resignation, is working on a new constitution to address corruption. This marks the second ICC event Sri Lanka has lost since 2024 for similar reasons.
