8 overs, 1 maiden, 13 runs and taken 6 wickets. These are the figures of young Srilankan sensation and new magician Agantha Mendis against India in the ASIA Cup Final on the flat Karachi pitch. Agantha mendis broke the backbone of India's great and in form batting line up by taking 6 crucial wickets that include the wickets of Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina and Rohit Sharma.. Mendis was the key factor in the Srilanka's vitory in the finals. He is a new-bie and has a unique action and he is not a big turner of the ball but there's something in it that distrubs the batsmen and batsmen aere unable top pick him up. As the India's next tour to Srilanka, i believe Agantha mendis will be a bug threat to Indian batsmen, more than the legendary MUttiah Muralitharan.
