In the T20 format, there is hardly any bowler like Sri Lanka captain Lasith Malinga. The Sri Lankan bowler, who took four wickets in four consecutive balls in T20 International, has also been voted the best bowler in the history of Indian Premier League (IPL). Malinga plays for the franchise team Mumbai Indians in the IPL.

The jury of Star Sports commentators have given this special title to Malinga. The jury has names such as Kevin Pietersen, Dean Jones, Matthew Hayden, Akash Chopra, Graeme Smith, Simon Dal, Ian Bishop and Tom Moody. In this list, there were big names like Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ashish Nehra, R Ashwin, Amit Mishra, Imran Tahir, Yuzvendra Chahal, Dale Steyn, Sunil Naren and Jaspreet Bumrah.

Malinga achieved all this by leaving them behind. Kevin Pietersen, who was a member of the jury, said on the "Cricket Connected' show, 'I will go with Malinga's name. You see how many matches he has played and how he throws his yorker ball, it forces everyone to discuss him. I wanted to go with Naren, but he has bowled on a wicket that helps him. His bowling action has also been in the circle of questions."
