In 2001, he was taken to the Sri Lankan team's nets, where he had to practice the batsmen. But Malinga's wreaking balls upset many Sri Lankan batsmen. One of Sri Lanka's greatest batsmen was Arvind De Silva. Seeing Malinga's strong bowling, Sri Lanka's batsmen refused to play them. Lasith Malinga took a hat-trick 3 times in ODI cricket.
