Sanath Jayasuriya

Sanath Jayasuriya was more than a handy spinner in the limited over arena. Sanath wasn’t a great turner of the ball but relied on his guile to mix up the pace of his deliveries. In the slog overs, he bowled quickly through the air and darted the ball into the batsmen cramping them for room.

He had the knack of picking up wickets and was often used effectively by the Sri Lankans as a partnership breaker. Sri Lanka could have not asked for more from Jayasuriya who added value to the Islanders as an explosive opener.
