Lasith Malinga

Separamadu Lasith Malinga (born August 28, 1983 in GalleSri Lanka) is a Sri Lankancricketer. He is a specialist fast bowler with a rare round-arm action, sometimes referred to as a sling action, which leads to his nickname, "Slinga Malinga". He is known for his very sharp bouncers which are often hard to recognise because of his round-arm action, and he has a very dangerous in-swinging yorker which has been known to smash batsmen's feet if they do not see it come out of his hand. Malinga can also swing the ball early on in a match and this is an advantage to him. He became the first ever player to take four wickets in four consecutive balls in international cricket.
