The Sri Lankan military took part in organising charity cricket matches for Tamils schoolchildren in the North-East last week, alongside Sri Lanka’s international cricketers.
Sri Lanka’s Security Forces Commander for Kilinochchi Major General Amal Karunasekara was garlanded as the chief guest at a ceremony held to launch the 'Murali Harmony Cup 20-20'.

The cup is supported by several Sri Lankan cricketers, including like Muttiah Muralidharan, Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara.
Mr Sangakarra has previously praised the military’s work in the North-East and was tipped to become Sri Lanka’s ambassador to the United Kingdom.
