Sri Lanka’s young pace man Nuwan Kulasekara has claimed best ever rating of his cricketing career as he was ranked as the second best bowler in the shorten form of the game by the world governing body. Kulasekara, 26, has achieved the rank after his impressive match figures of 3-17 off seven overs in the third one day international (ODI) against Pakistan in Lahore. Jumping four places from his last ODI rankings, he has also taken over Sri Lanka’s veteran bowler Muttiah Muralitharan, currently ranked at fourth place. “It’s a fine achievement for Kulasekara who has enjoyed a remarkable few months with Sri Lanka,” a statement issued by the ICC said. Sri Lanka’s new talent, Ajantha Mendis is ranked 13 and veteran pace man Chaminda Vaas is ranked 18 in ICC rankings for the ODIs. | LOCAL LINKS Clinical Sri Lanka secure series Sandeshaya Ranatunga sacked23 December, 2008 | Sandeshaya India set for tour of Sri LankaSandeshaya Mendis Wins ICC 'Emerging player'11 September, 2008 | Sandeshaya | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
