Mahela Jayawardene

The Sri Lankan batsman enjoyed one of the longest careers in international and during the course of that, Mahela Jayawardene went on to become one of the world’s leading ODI batsmen. In a career spanning around 17 years (1998-2015), the elegant right-hander played in as many as 448 ODI and scored 12,650 runs.

Among the modes of dismissals, the LBW seems a bit popular considering the fact that the former Sri Lankan captain got out 39 times in that fashion. The LBW dismissal percentage for Jayawardene stands at 9.33, which is actually not too high. Plenty of other batsmen have much bigger percentages but their count is low since they did not play as many games as him.
