Later on, he was synonymous with Mumbai's success, across editions. His last IPL appearance came against Rising Pune Supergiant in 2017. He continues to be an integral part of the Mumbai setup, as he is the current bowling coach.

Malinga has been phenomenal both for his national squad as well as for Mumbai Indians. Currently, he's finding it hard to make a comeback to his national team. Malinga will be in the history books for sure, owing to his death bowling.
