Kumar Sangakkara has stepped down as captain of the ODI and T20 teams but has offered to continue as the Test captain on an interim basis for the forthcoming series with England and Australia if this is considered helpful for the new captain.
Tillakaratne Dilshan and Angelo Mathews are the front-runners to take charge of the limited-overs' sides, while Thilan Samaraweera is being discussed as an option to lead the Test team.
Sangakkara was one of the highest scorers in the 2011 World Cup and scored 48 in their defeat to India in the final.

    අපි පැරදුනෙ සංගා ගෙ වරදකින් නෙවෙයි.
    මෙහෙම දෙයක් උනොත් ඉන්දියාවෙ ඉන්න නයි පනික්කියන්ට තවත් උඩ යනවා.
    සංගා ගෙ හැකියාව අඳුරගෙන තමයි එයාට ලෝක කන්ඩායමේ නායකත්වය පවා දීල තියෙන්නෙ.
    අර්ජුනලා වගේ පොට්ට දෙශපාලුවන්ගෙ ඉන්දියානු චේට්ටිය ගැලවෙන්න නම්
    සංගා වගේ මොලේ තියෙන කොල්ලෙක් ඉන්නම ඕන.
    yes! we need him..!!!!

    This was a decision I made prior to the 2011 World Cup. I will be 37 by the next World Cup and I cannot therefore be sure of my place in the team. It is better that Sri Lanka is led now by a player who will be at the peak of their career during that tournament.
    "It has been a true honour and a great privilege to serve my country as captain during the past two years and, although bitterly disappointed that we could not win the final, I am very proud of the performances of the team.
    "I met with the selectors on Monday and I explained my reasons for my decision and I assured them of my fullest support in helping our new captain settle into the leadership.
    "In this regard, I have offered to continue as the Test captain for the forthcoming series with England and possibly Australia if the selectors believe this would help the new captain and aid the transition.
    "I have no plans of retirement from international cricket at this stage and subject to form and fitness I would like to be considered for selection in all three formats of the game for the foreseeable future. "

    "I would like to announce that after careful consideration I have concluded that it is in the best long-term interests of the team that I step down now as national captain so that a new leader can be properly groomed for the 2015 World Cup in Australia", a statement from Sangakkara said.

    මේක ලෝක කුසලාන අහිමි උනාට වඩා පාඩුවක්...
    ලංකාවෙ අපිට ක්‍රිකට් කියන්නෙ ලෝක කුසලානය විතරක් නෙවෙයි.
    අපිව ක්‍රීඩාව අතින් ලෝකෙට ගෙනියන්න වෙන දෙයක් නෑ.
    ආයෙම කන්ඩායම ඉබාගාතෙ ගියොත් 2015 වෙනකොට ස්ටේබල් ටීම් එකක් නැතුව අතරමං වෙන්න වෙයි.1999 වගේ
