The world’s Number One sports brand, ‘adidas’, felicitated its Brand Ambassador Lasith Malinga on becoming the first ever bowler in the world to get three hat tricks in the history of One Day Internationals.

He was felicitated at the ‘adidas’ Performance Centre at Rajagiriya, the very next day after he achieved this historic feat.

‘adidas’ Brand Manager Leroy J. Ebert said, “adidas is very proud of Lasith Malinga and his trail blazing achievements on the pitch. An unorthodox right hand fast bowler, he is easily one of Sri Lanka’s top world class bowlers and spends a very long time, or even several days, either in the nets, on the pitch or at vigorous training. Malinga continuously stands, runs, jogs and is active at all times, and ‘adidas’ footwear and apparels protect him from injury, and most importantly, enhance his performance.”

Malinga who sports exclusive ‘adidas’ during training says, “I am happy to be part of the adidas exclusive global family and I am pleased that my achievements have been recognised in this manner. ‘adidas’ does go a step further and complements my technicality and fitness levels with technologically advanced and performance-driven footwear.”

The leading sports brand in the world, ‘adidas’ has launched its full range of innovative professional cricketing footwear, apparel, accessories and hardware at its exclusive ‘adidas’ performance centres at Havelock Town, Rajagiriya, Majestic City, Crescat Boulevard and at the Kandy City Centre.

‘adidas’ has stamped its indelible mark on cricket by powering top international teams such as South Africa, Australia and England, and, teams like Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils in the IPL.

At an international level, players such as Sachin Tendulkar, Kevin Peterson, Virendar Sehwag, Suresh Raina, Dwayne Bravo and Keiran Pollard have also been taken on board as ‘adidas’ brand ambassadors.
