All-rounder Upul Chandana, one of Sri Lanka’s 1996 world cup winning team, today announced he had quit International Cricket and accused the selectors of treating him shabbily.

“I was hoping to get selected for the World Cup after doing consistently well in domestic cricket. It did not happen and when I was not selected for the Twenty20 I thought I should quit playing International Cricket”, Chandana, 35 told reporters.

“I feel I was treated very unfair by the administrators”, said the leg spinner, who had a season with the English county Gloucestershire.

Chandana said he had not been approached by the unofficial Indian Cricket League (ICL). “I will have to think about it then (if approached),” he said.
