ESPNCricinfo: Within 12 hours of representing Mumbai Indians against Chennai Super Kings at the Wankhede Stadium, Lasith Malinga turned up in Kandy to play the Super Four Provincial Limited Over Tournament, and needed little time to make an impact. Captaining Galle against Kandy, Malinga scored only 2 with the bat, and then went on to hurt Kandy’s chase of 256. He scythed through the batting order, bagging the first five wickets to reduce them to 40 for 5. Malinga eventually completed the match with a haul of 7 for 49, leading his side to a 156-run win over Kandy.
On Wednesday night, Malinga took 3 for 34 against Super Kings, removing Shane Watson, Kedar Jadhav and Dwayne Bravo to help Mumbai register a 37-run win.
