After the win against Mumbai, Dhoni said that for such bowlers whose action is strange, the batsmen are not able to play properly and they have problems. At the same time, it is not about pace and variation, it is about consistency.

I would suggest he not play red-ball cricket at all and focus only on ICC events.

Can become a big achievement for the Sri Lankan cricket team:-

He can become a great asset for the Sri Lankan cricket team. Last season he was very thin, but this time he has come back very strong.

Sri Lanka’s Matheesha Pathirana took three wickets for just 15 runs in his four overs against Mumbai Indians.

From scalping early wickets and making an injury comeback to playing in front of an electrifying Chennai crowd 💛🙌

Pathirana is also fondly called Baby Malinga, because he has a Malinga-like action and he also throws yorkers accurately, due to which people have started calling him Baby Malinga.

Batting first, Mumbai Indians scored 139 runs in 20 overs. While Chennai Super Kings achieved this target easily, the team won the matches by losing only four wickets to this score.
