Frrom Sachin Tendulkar to Shane Watson and Brad Haddin, even the very best have fallen victim to a Lasith Malinga yorker over the years. Here are the Sri Lankan great's top 10 in Australia
Its also his bowling action. All batsman practice against overhead action and bowling machines. If you've never faced Malinga in the nets then you're in for a really difficult first few overs until you can adjust to his wide delivery. Its why he's such an effective T20 bowler, theres no time to try get your eye in with him.
To me his last ball of IPL 2019 was the best not only because of the accuracy but because of the consequences on either side of it. Maliga is a legend 🙌🙌
Best Batmans ==Mahela Sanga, best Wicket Keepers == Sanga Best Right arm spinner == murali Best left arm spinner == herath Best fast bawlers== vass, malinga best all rounders== jayasuriya, dilshan.... How powerful of sri lankan team with this combinations
The legendary Lasith Malinga . A trailblazer , a pioneer , glad Sri Lanka got such a legend in their colours though I am from India . Made all his teams so potent .
Malinga. But now that he is nearing the end of his career, others (Bumrah, Rabada, Starc and Archer) are taking on the YORKERS! LONG LIVE THE YORKER KING!!!!!!!!
Came here after seeing Pathirana rock the IPL in May 2023 .So happy for Sri Lanka that they have a world class product provided his fitness holds . Hopefully India will get a few bowlers like him or Bumrah.
@@dillonnav If you think so, good for you. That's the beauty of personal opinions, they are peraonal. For some people, Lara is the best batsman, for some Tendulkar. I enjoyed both. I think Bumrah is better overall, you think Malinga is better. So be it. Enjoy cricket. No point in getting into silly bates on youtube.
Malinga from one end, Murali from the other. You can see why this becomes a problem for any opposition, especially when backed up by tidy bowlers like Herath and Kulasekara.
@@pbgamer1290 but why, just because my name is Indian? What ever you think that's totally your choice, but i lives in Australia🇦🇺 past 8 years, with my younger brother,.
Malinga's accuracy is phenomenal regardless, but especially considering his round-arm action, which should make maintaining a consistent line difficult. Those dipping slower balls are just deadly. I think that the lower release point makes it much more difficult for the batsman to pick up length and pace, because the ball starts out coming pretty much straight at him at eye level. That's just part of his success though. Any bowler would have success if they were so consistently accurate, but add the swing and the unusual trajectory and you end up with probably the best limited-overs bowler of all time.
His slow Yorkers were unplayable and unreadable .. even greatest batsmen couldn't play it... It had different trajectory due to slow pace but fast action...hats off legend
He’s so hard to pick up because when you look at him in normal time it looks like he’s just chucking the ball but when you look closely he’s actually bowling with the arm outstretched. Some of the deliveries shown here are absolutely unplayable.
Being an unorthodox bower , No one to guide as you're different , Going through difficulties ,and At the TOP ! Malinga is a GEM of Cricket !! Lots of love :).
If the action in not valid, it will be a no ball. Malinga was not the only one who had slinggi action. Fidel Edwards, Shaun Tait and Michel Johnson also had that kind of action. In cricket it is a valid action if you like, agree or not.
if you look back sri lankan cricketing history its a country with full of unorthodox cricketers like sanath jayasuriya, murali and malinga whom have changed the game of cricket. Small country amazing talent! 🇱🇰🇱🇰
Because of the cross arm action, the ball has straight line path between the stumps and then there is a bit of movement in the air (the odd swing or reverse)....helped also by batsman's usual belief that the ball's gonna have incoming path. But the slower deliveries are outstanding. He is quite similar to Waqar Younis.
Seen some great bowler's, but it's this guy's style, accuracy, power, swing, speed and the rest. Definitely one of my favourite bowler's and definitely the best Yorkers you'll see. It's great to watch him back now and then for sure.
This guy is definitely BUILT DIFFERENT. He has 5 Hat-trick in total. 3 ODI hat-tricks and 2 T20 hat-tricks 😍 Also took 4 wickets in 4 balls in Both formats (ODI and T20) 👌👏✨ The one and only Slinga Malinga ❤️ Yorker KING 👑 @/thegreatest #99
