Lasith Malinga has been Sri Lanka’s go-to bowler for years now. In the limited overs formats, the speedster has established himself as one of the best death over specialists with his ability to bowl relentless toe-crushing yorkers with precision.
On couꦗntless occasions, Malinga has single-handedly won games for his team out of hopeless situations with his accuracy, ability 𒉰to soak in the pressure and deliver in times of need.
Malinga turned 34 on Monday (August 28) and his IPL team Mumbai Indians’ captain Rohit Sharma and teammate Hardik Pandya took to Twitter to wish the yorker king.
Rohit wrote, “A true match winner that every captain would love to have in his team, done it so often for his country & #MI.Happy birthday Lasith Malinga”
