Malinga was not his usual best in the CB series, yet he was easily the highest wicket taker |
Sri Lanka's
bowling coach Champaka
Ramanayake has brushed aside any concerns about Lasith
Malinga's form, saying that with the number of games Sri Lanka have
been involved in Malinga was bound to have a poor game or two. Malinga comes in
to the Asia Cup after an inconsistent performance in the Commonwealth Bank
series in Australia, in which he was the leading wicket-taker with 18 scalps in
11 games but went at 6.21 runs per over.
