5 players who are on the verge of retirement
These players have enhanced the gentlemen's game and now it is to time celebrate the final moments of their glorious career.
4) Lasith Malinga
Sri Lanka has witnessed some of the greatest cricketing stories and Lasith Malinga’s journey is one of them. The speedster led the bowling attack of Lankan Lions in 4 ODI World Cups. He was the skipper when the team won its maiden T20 title in 2014. In short, he did everything possible to bring the laurels to Sri Lankan cricket and was a pearl from the island nation located in the Indian ocean.
Till this date, Malinga is a trump card for Sri Lanka and his wicket-taking abilities are second to none. His unusual action coupled with deadly yorkers and slow ball variations has earned him close to 550 international scalps. He has also scaled over 350 wickets in franchise T20 cricket and is still a marquee player for most of the sides.
With 13 dismissals in 7 matches, the Rathgama Express was at full speed in the 2019 World Cup. Lasith Malinga is in his last cricketing chapter in ODIs and might want to end the tale on a positive note. He’s ready to play a few more T20Is before bowing out.
