#3 Lasith Malinga

Arguably one of the best death bowlers, Malinga has played an integral role in Sri Lanka’ success over the years. He made his debut back in 2004 and has featured in all the Champions Trophy tournaments since then.

Known for his toe-crushing yorkers and the variations in his deliveries, Malinga is beginning to lose his golden touch and is slowly starting to fade away.

Batsmen are beginning to figure him out and are able to pick out his deliveries with a lot more ease than before.

Despite that, he will continue to play a big role for Sri Lanka as he is one of the senior most members of a relatively inexperienced side going into the 2017 champions trophy. Having said that, Sri Lanka would look for some young guns the next time the tournament comes along.
