Sri Lankan cricketer Lasith Malinga today in the 3rd T20 against New Zealand have created history. He in the third over of the New Zealand inning took 4 wickets in his last 4 balls of the over.
Lasith Malinga also known as Slinga Malinga is famous for his yorker delivery. He for his wickets bowled back to back yorker. 2 Leg Before and 2 clean bowled. In 2007 World Cup against South Africa he did the same in the ODI cricket and created history and today he repeated it in the T20’s.
Lasith Malinga also became the 1st ever bowler to take 100 wickets in the T20 international.
Malinga produced one after other 4 unplayable yorkers and turned the game completely in the favour of Sri Lanka. Kiwis have already wrapped up the series by winning 2 T20 out of the 3 and were aiming to win the third after host set a target of 126.
Captain Malinga has other plans and his historic over, made the nominal target look like the mountain. And after he took 4 on 4, Twitter was all praise for the history maker.
This is how he did it. #FourIn4
