#4 Lasith Malinga
The Mumbai Indians pacer’s characteristics have made him instantly recognisable anywhere. His flamboyant blonde-brown afro along with a peculiar round arm action that ends with the ball being delivered from shoulder height ensure that the Sri Lankan is the centre of attention on the cricket ground.
Malinga’s intelligent variations at the death and signature yorkers make him an asset for whichever team he represents but he seems to be more of a liability on Cricket 07. In a case similar to Dale Steyn’s, Malinga does not possess any special skills in the game, not even those of Trickster and Strike Bowler, two traits which are very much his USP.

Malinga’s accuracy and discipline, things which are required in bucketloads to execute those yorkers of his, are also rated at only 80.
