Lasith Malinga

30 Test matches; 101 wickets; 33.15 average; 5 50 BBI; 51.5 strike rate Another to possess a slingshot bowling action, Sri Lankan Lasith Malinga remains a tough bowler to face in limited overs cricket. Sadly, his body could not stand up to the rigours of the five day version, and he retired from Tests having played just 30 games. In the course of those matches, however, he showed himself to be capable of making the red ball move a great deal as he took wickets regularly.
