Malinga set to quit ODI

Sri Lankan fast bowler Lasith Malinga is set to retire from one-day international cricket after playing the first game of a three-match series against Bangladesh this week. Sri Lanka captain Dimuth Karunaratne says Malinga has indicated he’ll retire from ODIs after Friday’s match. He will continue to play Twenty20 internationals. In a career spanning 15 years, the 35-year-old paceman with a distinctive slinging bowling action has played in 225 ODIs and taken 335 wickets. He has been the premier match-winning bowler for Sri Lanka for many years playing alongside and after the exit of ace offspinner Muttiah Muralitharan. He retired from test cricket in 2010 after taking 101 wickets in 30 matches.
