It may feel like Ajantha Mendis has been around for ever (he’s already had a dramatic arrival on the international scene , followed by a relative fall from grace and then a minor resurgence), but it’s only about 15 months since he took 6-13 in the Asia Cup final . In that time, he ...
There’s a New Mendis in Town
spunout.wordpress.com 9/2/2009 — Poor Ajantha Mendis. Little more than a year ago he was the Next Big Thing, the Great White Hope, even the New Murali. Now, not only has he seemingly been usurped in the Sri Lankan pecking order of spinners by Rangana Herath , he may not even be the most prominent cricketing Mendis of the ...
Pakistan & the Ajantha Mendis Threat
wellpitched.com 6/28/2009 — The Pakistanis have landed in Colombo, where they play a 3-day game against a Sri Lankan XI from tomorrow, before they head to Galle for the 1st test next week. The series that was left incomplete by some twisted men in Lahore, will now continue in the island over the next month. After the ...
Mendis
armball.blogspot.com 8/23/2009 — Mendis is on a way down. I still want him to tour India in October and November. I want him to get hit all over by Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman and Yuvraj. And then I wont care if he plays or get dropped. He has been a major hyped player who just failed to live up to expectations. Players like him ...
No batsman has figured me out - Mendis
cricinfo.com 6/18/2009 — The wounds from the Lahore terror attack may have left physical scars, but they have done nothing to detract Ajantha Mendis from his spin-bowling wizardry
End of the Mystery Spinner?
blog.kridaya.com 7/23/2009 — Rangana Herath’s 5-wicket haul in the last Pakistani innings of this series, while expensive, will mean a longer absence for Ajantha Mendis from the Sri Lankan team. Unless Sri Lanka plans to field three spinners in a Test, it will be Herath who will accompany Murali in the upcoming ...
Mendis secures another Singapore win
cricinfo.com 9/1/2009 — Buddhika Mendis stroked an unbeaten century to steer Singapore to their third win in a row in the ICC World Cricket League Division 6
Mendis and SL's entry to semis
armball.blogspot.com 6/16/2009 — Mendis is now having success against teams which havent played him before. Like Australia, New Zealend (3rd wkt now) or England (a hot favorite for 10-for). But teams who have repeatedly played him have figured him out. Dont agree ? Ask any Indian or a Pakistani :). They would agree here. ...
Splendid Mendis cut in half
theflyslip.net 4/28/2009 — To be fair to Mendis, there really arnt too many bowlers who can stop Sanath and Tendulkar when they are in that kind of mood.
Brutal, murderous and calculated. Sanath would have seen Mendis in the nets for ages so it would have been easier for him to pick him. But Tendulkar who had trouble ...
Mohammad Yousuf is Special
wellpitched.com 7/5/2009 — Mohammad Yousuf continues to hit test hundreds, while Ajantha Mendis continues to fail against Pakistan. The best part about this was that Yousuf did not read Mendis at all during his knock of 114. Mendis turned the ball both ways and quite a bit too; all this while Yousuf was caught at sea ...
Mendis should be Splendid again
armball.blogspot.com 7/18/2009 — I want Mendis to be in wickets in the 3rd Test. I want him to regain his so called splendidness before he embarks on the tour to India. I want him to be the same bowler which he was when India played him last in 2008 in Tests. I want him to be as strong and hyped as he was. The battle between ...
