Lasith Malinga became the first bowler in ODI history to take four wickets in four balls. But, despite his efforts, South Africa won by a wicket in Guyana
“An extraordinary spell of fast bowling from Lasith Malinga, where he strung together a devastating sequence of four wickets in four balls, threatened to produce the greatest one-day heist before South Africa scrambled to a dramatic one-wicket victory in a heart-stopping Super Eights clash in Guyana.” — CricInfo

This guy is bowling with tilt of more than 15 degrees… are the empires sleeping?
his bowling action doesnt looks good…
hi
Horrible bowling… perfectly eligible to be banned.
very very very very very very very very disgusting bowling actin. where are the icc chairmen? r they sleeping.they think other good bowlers bowling action is bad. wat about this dumb bowler. getb this man out.
His bowling action needs to be looked into. Doesn’t look right
he was throwing not balling…..was the empire thinking that it was a baseball match…..
this guy is throwing the ball. he doesn’t deserve to be a world cup player.
Dear all. It is so funny to see you guys criticizing a man who will remembered for longer than u guys will be alive. I understand there must be a pain after the loss of india to SriLanka, but that doesn’t necessarily mean tha u have to ignore a talent and make such absurd comments. He took four freaking wickets out in a row, and a few sad souuls behind their lil pcs think he is aan awful bowler? gimme a break guys. by the way i am neither indian, nor from Srilanka.
Chill Guys, always accept the truth. it won’t be that much hurtful then.
alessandro, u need not declare u r not from India. your comments make it obvious how little u know abt indians. Let me tell u, had it been someone like Vaas or Wasim Akram there would be much more admiring comments here from we Indians. But these chucker like Murlidharan or Malinga are really curse to cricket, and any person who knows lil cricket will put comments like above. My friend, chucking or throwing need not have any talent. AWs as u correctly mentioned, unfortunately his record will go in record book bypassing great bowlers like Akram
This is disguisting..
where is the video?
This is horrible he was not at all bowling .He does’nt deserve to get the respect of taking a hatrick in world cup.
WHERE IS THE VIDEO YAAR?
INDIAN ARE SO JELERSE OF SRI LANKAN CRICKRT THATS WHY BAD HABIT???? INDIEN NEVER EVER WORLD CHAMPIAN AGAIN ,
GAMINI… plz get ur spellings right…. ur spellings are as disgusting as Malinga’s action
only one word……. “CHUCKER”
What a peeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrfect chuking (So called bowling).
All those who accepts this as bowling, including that of ICC, then I can only say that they don’t know what’s cricket.
It’s been on for a while. Let me jot down the famous chukers I know.
1) Shoib Aktar
2) Muralitharan
3) Harbhajan
4) Malinga
I need not necessarily agree even if all agree that this is bowling by Malinga. Because this is the truth, truth that he is a chucker.
There is no middle path between bowling and chucking. It should either be bowling or chucking. Certainly this is not bowling, so that leaves us with only chucking.
I’m for sure, by the time world cup ends, people realise this is perfect chucking.
So, folks, don’t have any second thoughts, don’t either call it the worst bowling, call him the perrrrrrrrrrrrrrrfect chuker.
Malinga is a chucker, this is the truth.
Malinga is a bad (or good) bowler is only a perception.
Bowling action is not acceptable, are rules and regulations changed. Action is the Primary Stage for the Bowler.
Praveen.
Indians are full of jealousy!! no wonder thats why they are out of the world cup!!! Always learn to admire good talents be it in your side or the other side. Thats what is called good sportsmanship!!! Then only you stupid indians can think of coming up. Until Then you Indians are cursed to be cutting each others throat( Including that of an Indian!)
This has been one of the most interesting debate about cricket in ‘nighi’ so far..quite like it..Cricket Zindabaad..
Suresh!!!! why the heck wont u shut the fuck up. u must be a pakistani mothafucka…just jealous that u got eliminated by a team like ireland….
so stfu if u dont know wat u r talking….
Why should I shut up b’cos Iam a srilankan! What I said is the whole truth about his bowling. Mate learn to appreciate the talents of others regardless of whether the person is black or white!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Enjoy
Suresh,
U have a fucked up mentality. This discussion has nothing to do with nationality. I think you cannnot hear truth about Malinga because he’s also from Srilanka. But beware that doesn’t make you a patriot,, it will only show your stupidness, and if you say that malinga is fine bowler…i think u r watching cricket for the first time. There is no doubt that Malinga has no future in Cricket. I am not saying this because he is Srilankan. I have a Srilankan friend and he also agrees that Malingta is a chucker.
Sooo…..keep in Mind,,, whatever u r …. everybody appreciates talent irrespective of where he is from. Sachin is appreciated in Pakistan, Wasim and Vass in India. So if u have even a slightest brain, try to contemplate on what people say and not from where the people are.
Hey guys.its a old thread but ..thought of leaving a comment here. for all the comments above..its talent..if u have talent show like malinga..world cup is ended..and sri lanka became runners up with the contribution of malinga..and ICC had no offence at all over him..and guess what he is now playing for kent…ha ha..
whatever your comments are he is accepted…u all blame him sayin chuckking but whole world accepted him even the neglad originater for cricket
u all whoever put bad comments on him regret what u have mentioned.
keep blaming he will go on top..watch he is moving up in ICCC ranking..lol
