These are just a few to show that Sanath Jayasuriya was way ahead of his time, he belongs to his category. In fact, he makes you feel that he's from another planet. He can be termed as a bowler’s nightmare. He used to give them unnecessary stress and sap their confidence.
To remember that he played most of his career when T20 wasn't there. ODI had only one ball used for the entire 50 overs. 5 players were allowed outside the 30-yard circle after the first 15 overs. Even some of the ODIs were played with the red ball. Even in his final years, he could be ruthless by scoring 114 off 43 vs .
He's a revolutionary.
