ERANGA HOSPITALISED WITH SUSPECTED HEART AILMENT........

In what must indeed come as a double whammy; beleaguered Sri Lankan speedster Shaminda Eranga was admitted to a Dublin Hospital for a suspected heart ailment after experiencing acute discomfort while facing a solitary delivery during the course of his team's batting effort against the host nation on Sunday........
 Eranga who has been an important cog in the Sri Lankan bowling wheel for the last few years was earlier in the day apprised of the heart rending news that he has been suspended from bowling in all future fixtures with immediate effect on account of being called twice in quick succession for a suspect bowling action by the on field umpires during the course of the recently concluded England- Sri Lanka test series that was won by the English lions by a resounding 2-0 margin..........
 As mentioned earlier; Eranga experienced acute discomfort and unendurable agony in his chest region while negotiating the final delivery of a rather dismal batting effort by his team during the course of the second ODI against minnows Ireland and was rushed to nearby Dublin hospital where he was admitted to the medical facility's cardiac intensive care unit........
 Doctors attending on him opined that the severity or criticality of Eranga's suspected career threatening ailment would only be ascertained after obtaining the results of the battery of tests that were run on him by the team of cardiologists throughout the course of the fateful Sunday and it would therefore be premature and presumptive to make any prognosis or diagnosis on his overall well being before the test results were received.........
 Eranga who was slated to undergo a comprehensive and cogent bowling test at an ICC accredited lab based on the premises of England's iconic Loughborough University on Monday will now only undergo the same after being provided with a "clean" bill of health by the Dublin based hospital in which he is currently admitted and may also be staring at the dreaded prospect of putting a premature end to his fledgling career at the age of 29 if his heart condition turns out to be a serious as suspected.........
 Here's wishing this supremely gifted Sri Lankan pace man a speedy and complete recovery as well as a minimum of seven to eight more event filled years of cricket at the highest level as an already struggling and besieged Sri Lankan side need his services that bit more with a big question mark hanging over ailing fellow speedster Lasith Malinga's future as a Sri Lankan cricketer.........
