Colombo, Sept 3 (IBNS) Marvan Atapattu on Thursday resigned from the post of Head Coach of the Sri Lanka Cricket Team, officials said.

"We would like to inform you of the resignation of Mr. Marvan Atapattu from the post of Head Coach of the Sri Lanka Cricket Team which has been accepted by Sri Lanka Cricket," the Sri Lanka Cricket said in a statement.
