  • Morgan proves the man for all formats 29 Jul 2010 | 11:01 pm

    Eoin Morgan's impact on the first day at Trent Bridge was so emphatic, at times you wondered what all the pre-match fuss had been about

  • Uncertain Kaneria fails to make his mark 29 Jul 2010 | 10:48 pm

Malinga Withdrawn from Lions Squad PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 29 January 2010

The bizhub Highveld Lions CEO, Alan Kourie, today announced that Lasith Malinga has unfortunately been withdrawn as their overseas pro for the forthcoming Standard Bank Pro20 series campaign by the Sri Lankan Cricket Board due to injury and conditioning concerns. 

 

Furthermore, the bizhub Highveld Lions will not look to replace him in the squad, and will campaign with their local players.

 

The bizhub Highveld Lions coach, Dave Nosworthy said : “This is a very disappointing situation, as Malinga would have been a great asset in the team and we would have had a “death bowling” specialist to be feared.  At this stage we also sit with three of our front line bowlers on the injury list in Andre Nel, Craig Alexander and Friedel de Wet – which makes things even tougher.  However, all these things mean is that someone else gets the opportunity to step up to the plate which excites me!”
