5 Players who can revive Sri Lanka in ODI cricket

South Africa v Sri Lanka - 4th ODI Series

#3. Lasith Malinga

Sri Lanka v Pakistan - ICC Champions Trophy

Recently, Lasith Malinga was called back to Sri Lanka's ODI side for the ongoing Asia Cup. While he had an excellent outing in the very first match, he was taken to cleaners by the Afghanistan batsmen in the match that followed.

However, if his performance in the first match is anything to go by, he still has a fair bit of cricket left in him and the Sri Lanka cricket need to use it in the best possible way. A veteran of 206 ODIs with 306 wickets, he can offer a lot to the upcoming pacers.

Even if he plays for the next 1-2 years, he will play a huge role in the development of the young generation of pacers around him. For this to happen, he needs to work hard on his fitness and keep contributing with the ball.
