evidence: Recently, social media has been abuzz with claims regarding Sri Lankan cricketer Udeshika Prabodini. The posts suggest Prabodini, who is 38 and one of the senior-most players in the team, is financially struggling. Prabodini played a key role in Sri Lanka's recent Asia Cup victory as the opening bowler. [...] He emphasised that Udeshika has been playing for the Sri Lanka cricket team since 2008 and is financially stable. As a contract player, she gets a monthly salary in addition to the other special allowances all the team players get on special assignments and tours. [...] The claims circulating on social media about Udeshika Prabodini’s financial struggles and her use of public transportation are unfounded. Prabodini’s family is well-equipped with vehicles, and her choice is public transport as she does not favour driving vehicles.
