Guys/gals,
What's your opinion on Lasith Malinga?
He is 1 of my favourite bowlers of the moment and he isn't bowling anywhere near as fast (around 135-140kph/84-87mph) as he can (150kph/93mph+).
He has 1 of the best slower balls in the game IMO, extremely hard to pick with that unorthodox low action (and he's only a short man too) it's hard to pick.
His accuracy so far in the IPL has been phenominal, only maybe 6-10 balls way off target in 5 games. He deserves more wickets than he has got.
I know he splits most people down the middle, but no-one can deny he is a dangerous bowler when on form.
He has gone from being an outswinging bowler to an all-out paceman to an accurate fast-medium bowler. He's not long come off of an injury so he'll probably push the speed up slightly, but I wouldn't want him to bowl @ 90mph+ and be inccurate.
Hopefully he avoids further serious injury in the future. I'm sure his SR and average will come down the longer he plays, he's a quality bowler.
Your thoughts?
