Dispute mars party

SRI Lanka’s team flew home in triumph yesterday to a huge street party after winning the world Twenty20 tournament, but celebrations were marred by controversy over the retirements of Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara.

“I am disappointed and hurt that an official went public criticizing us without first asking us whether we actually made those remarks,” Jayawardene said, adding his remarks to a newspaper were misinterpreted. “I agree with what he says,” Sangakkara added.
