Chaminda Vaas can easily be the most inconspicuous players in the Sri Lankan cricket team. But, when it comes to new-ball bowling, he is counted amongst the best in the world. Incisive and out of the ordinary, Vaas has scripted numerous victories for his side
Despite being subjected to flat pitches in the subcontinent, Chaminda Vaas has mastered the art of wicket-taking. As a pace bowler, he has been remarkably consistent and rarely out of the national team. During the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 in West Indies, he will be instrumental in shaping Lankans’ fortunes
Chaminda Vaas boasts of having a wide array of bowling styles in his repertoire. His off-cutters, reverse-swings, and late in-dippers have deceived the best of batsmen, making him highly credible as the spearhead of Sri Lanka’s bowling attack. After spin wizard Muttiah Muralitharan, he is the country’s most successful bowler.
Chaminda Vaas is a sincere batsman, chipping in with well-timed 20s at the hour of need. It is this sincerity that makes him one of the key players in Sri Lankan team for World Cup 2007.
Featuring in 290 one-dayers, Chaminda Vaas has taken 370 wickets at an economy rate of 4.20. His credentials in longer version of the game are equally laudable – 313 wickets in 96 Test matches. As a seamer, Vaas is virtually irreplaceable. His contribution and form will stand Sri Lanka in good stead at the ninth edition of World Cup.
