#1 Lasith Malinga

Can Malinga inspire a miracle from Sri Lanka?
Can Malinga inspire a miracle from Sri Lanka?

The Sri Lankan veteran made his ODI debut against the United Arab Emirates in 2004. Lasith Malinga impressed everyone in the 2007 World Cup Super Eight match against South Africa, where he became the first man to take four wickets in four consecutive balls and nearly pulled off an improbable victory for his side.

Malinga's uncanny ability to nail yorkers at will and outfox world-class batsman with his slower balls make him a match winner in the shorter format. The Sri Lankan speedster has 322 scalps to his name in 218 ODI matches and is the only man who has taken three Hat-tricks in ODI cricket.

The 2019 Cricket World Cup is likely to be Malinga's last and he will be determined to take his country over the line and fascinate his fans one more time with his toe-crushing deliveries.
