Lasith Malinga Biography.

Separamadu Lasith Malinga was born on 28 August 1983 in Galle. He is a specialist fast bowler with a unique round-arm action, sometimes referred to as a sling action, which leads to his nickname, "Slinga Malinga" and conversely, his bowling style being nicknamed "Malinga the Slinga" both terms still consistently being associated with him in street cricket and general cricketing society.

He is known for his ability to take consecutive wickets. He is the only bowler in the world to have two World Cup hat-tricks, the only bowler to have taken three hat-tricks in ODIs and the only player to have taken four wickets in four consecutive balls in any form of international cricket.

On 22 April 2011 he announced his retirement from Test cricket. He bowls around a speed of 140 km/h. His fastest ball was clocked at 155.7 km/h in 2011, which is still tied for the 4th fastest speed amongst active bowlers (shared with Dale Steyn)as of 3 January, 2015.
