Cricket: Sri Lankan cricketers missing

The captain and two other members of Sri Lanka's women's cricket team have gone missing during a stopover in London following a tour of the West Indies.

Sudarshini Sivanathan, the captain of the 16-member squad, and all-rounders Ramani Perera and Hiroshi Abeysinghe failed to board a Colombo-bound flight in London.

Gwen Herat, president of the Women's Cricket Association, confirmed the three were missing and said an investigation was under way.

"They have tarnished the country's image and I would do anything to get them arrested."
