On 19 June 2016, following
Sri Lanka's ODI matches in Ireland, Eranga was admitted to hospital in
Dublin to undergo tests on his heart. However, on the same day, he was suspended from bowling in international matches by the
International Cricket Council (ICC) due to an illegal action reported during the second Test against England earlier the previous month. He was discharged from hospital the following day. On 18 July 2017, ICC cleared Eranga bowling action, so he can play again in international cricket with his revised bowling action. ==Domestic career==
