Sri Lanka cricketers have poured in emotional messages on social media after Mickey Arthur announced his decision to relinquish his post as the chief coach.
He later coached Australia, before guiding Pakistan to their first ICC Champions Trophy in 2017.
Arthur said he hopes to make some changes to the batting order at the World Cup.
As soon as the match was over, Arthur was seen having a heated argument with one of the match officials. Subsequently, the head coach had another heated discussion with Sri Lanka's captain Dasun Shanaka on the field.
Arthur was not at all impressed with Sri Lanka's performance as they were in a shoo-in position.
Sarfaraz and Arthur had combined well to take Pakistan to the Champions Trophy title in 2017.
The duo tested positive after PCR Tests were carried out on Tuesday for the entire 36-member provisional squad.
Arthur said allowing artificial substances would have confused matters in the long run.
Arthur also dismissed reports that he and former chief selector, Inzamam-ul-Haq, didn't get along.
Sri Lanka coach Mickey Arthur said the team has some 'very realistic goals' and believes that they can gain success both at home and abroad in the longest format of the game in future.
