Lasith Malinga 

Sri Lanka Cricket has appointed former Sri Lanka fast bowler and white ball captain Lasith Malinga as the Bowling Strategy Coach of the national team for the white ball segment of the Australia tour of Sri Lanka.

During the tour, Malinga will support Sri Lanka’s bowlers, providing tactical insight and technical expertise to help the on-field execution of strategic plans.

SLC is confident that Malinga’s vast experience and renowned death-bowling expertise, especially in the T20 format, will help the team immensely going into this all-important series, states an SLC media release.

Malinga held the same role with the national team when the team toured Australia in February this year for a white ball series.
