A Surprise Meeting with Lasith Malinga at Chuti Foods

Choosing beef curry was a let down though. ( “like chewing leather”, says Anne).
Had a brief chat about cricket before parting ways. Told me he is contracted with the Mumbai Indians in the upcoming IPL.
He now resides in Berwick with his family over the past couple of years.
Down to earth former Sri Lankan great who left lasting memories with his slinging toe crushers that had batsmen around the world bewildered as they struggled to negotiate his blistering pace and accuracy.
