Sri Lanka's former spinner Kumar Dharmasena has received the David Shepherd umpire of the year award for 2018. 

Dharmasena received the much-coveted award for the second consecutive year. 

Meanwhile, Sri Lankan opener Dimuth Karunaratne was included in the ICC world Test team. The inclusion was a major recognition for the opener whose phenomenal performance last year strengthened the Sri Lankan Test team. 

No Sri Lankan player was considered for the ICC ODI team. 

Both ICC Test and ODI World teams are captained by Indian captain Virat Kohli who also received the award for the ICC player of the year.
