Meanwhile, a former Sri Lankan player found something strange about two matches in the early 1990s. <br /><br />"I am suspicious about at least two matches. Sri Lankan players had no money then," he said. When asked why he did not disclose the information for 20 years, he said: "The truth would not have come out even now had this not been revealed by Tillakaratne." </p>
