Many knows him as Master Blaster....! ( From the words of Tony Greg) The black Superman....! He was our hero. The person who was so humble in his normal life and when it time to batting he becomes one of the most feared batsman in the world, in any type of the cricket. I still remember the days he revolutionized one day cricket and showed the path to the Sri Lankan cricket team to win the 1996 World Cup. And then he went to make the fastest 50 and 100 in one day cricket and then he showed us how much of class he has by scoring 340 runs in an innings playing against India in a test match.
If Sanath scores well we are sure that most of the time our team will win the match. He was that much of a influence in to the team. And he was not just a batsman he was wonderful all rounder.
As he say good bye to test cricket, I would like to say that there will be no one like him in the whole world he is unique, his presence in test match will surely be missed by his team mates and by the cricket loving fans all around the world....! We are going to miss you Sanath....! And thanks for all the things you have done to Sri Lankan cricket....!
