I remember we discussed this after Avishka's first 10 matches or so. That technique and lack of footwork could be a problem if he plays Test cricket. Might be able to get away with it in ODI to some extent. White ball and batting friendly tracks. He has good enough strokeplay to go big when he gets a start.

This is classic analysis! Its beyond me! I love it. I knew Malinga is a great strategist, but didn't know he analyses the game at this level.
Wow! I am so proud he was born in SL.
No wonder why Mumbai Indians employs him.

He will definitely struggle vs moving balls in pacer friendly conditions. Pretty poor backfoot player as well. The only thing that is keeping him afloat vs spin is his ability to pick line and length very early. Good hand eye coordination.
