3. Lasith Malinga
Lasith Malinga has been one of the most feared seamers in international cricket. Malinga is a rare breed who darts in the ball with his unusual slingly action. The Lankan speedster is deceptively quick and as his deliveries skid off the pitch.
Malinga has cleaned off the best of batting lineups with those toe crushing yorkers. He has been the best death bowler for the Lankans for more than a decade and choked the opposition for runs.
Malinga formed a lethal pace duo with the experienced Lankan seamer Nuwan Kulasekara in ODIs. An out and out strike bowler, Malinga gives the Sri Lankan pace attack cutting edge in white ball cricket.
