Well malinga... you are really a an un professional crickter. You can have preassure and so many problems but you dont have any dam rights to yell and bark at media... You have lost all the support from srilanka. Do you think the country fans will like you here after???? Its a pity... Oh is it because you know only sinhala???? If a media guy had asked you this same in English???? You would have has eggs in your mouth.. Get a life ,,, of course i knw these will not go into your head as you are driven by cash and cash only.. and you will go to any extent to do what ever for that...

Why,is media the supreme power? Or they should get special attention for publishing unnecessary gossips and that kind things? Well said malinga.

Who are you Malinga? You were acting like a swollen headed Ass. SriLankan people lifted you to this level. You have to respect srilankan people for supporting you in the past. Don't act as the 'KATUSSA WITH THE GOLDEN NECKLACE AROUND THE NECK'

Is Malinga from this side of Benthara Bridge or other side from Colombo? One has to be careful when dealing.

Doesn't need to insult him because SCC should take action against he's behaviour. I saw comments lot of people so jealous with him.
But remember one thing he is one of most successful bowler this time in the world.We can't underestimate he's value.

This is not how a role model, national cricketer should behave, regardless of his talent, reputation or his importance to the National team, he should be suspended and must be made to apologize publicly.

This cricket guy act aggressively in public and shows the world that he is big headed somebody,which inevitably comes from inferior complicity.. even though this guy playing gentleman's game,he has proved to the public that he is not a gentleman.Barking at Media is big mistake.

Calistus Jayatilleke Tuesday, 05 March 2013 12:33 PM

It really shows his upbringing, education and class although he is playing what some may call a "gentleman's game". This is what heaps of money has done for him, just like they say "Katussata ran maalayak banda wage".

Malinga Nowadays is not a quality bowler for SL. He is quality only for IPL and the Australian Big Bash. So we need not care about persons who don't care about the SL Public, SLC & the
SL Media.
