This small country Sri Lanka produced some great legends like Jayasuriya, Atapattu, Ranatunga, Aravinda De Silva, Chaminda Vaas, Kumar Sangakkara, Jayawardane, Dilshan, Roshan Mahanama, Romesh Kaluwitharana, Mutthaih Muralidharan, Rangana Herath and many more .... its just wowww.... and yes I am not a Sri Lankan but i watched them everytime when Srilanka played. Childhood memories refreshed ...
When Sanath Jayasuriya is in the mood to hit 4's & 6's it's a feast for the eyes of even the fans of the opposite team. Such a graceful master blaster he really was. Had all his shots timed with power and perfection and not just by slog. He had a unique batting style and technique throughout his career.

What a spectacular display of true batting skills. Thank you Mr. Sanath Jayasuriya. I grew up watching you and Sachin Tendulkar bat, two legends with different styles of batting...👍
Jayasurya is daddy of all t20 six hitters out there..infact he was born to have that impact on game..that a team can score 140-150 runs in first 15 overs..rest is history.
Sanath Jayasuriya career ODI average: 32.36, avg against India: 36.24 Jayasuriya vs India under Azhar captaincy 25 matches, highest 79, avg 15.47, 1 fifty, 0 hundreds Jayasuriya vs India under Sachin captaincy 13 matches, highest 151*, avg 70, 6 fifties, 2 hundreds Jayasuriya vs India under Ganguly captaincy 15 matches, highest 189, avg 52.66, 2 fifties, 3 hundreds Jayasuriya vs India under Dhoni captaincy 20 matches, highest 125, avg 36, 2 fifties, 2 hundreds
this is 37 years old sanath. if there were pitches like modern pitches in 1990s then what could happened? sanath could easily make 300 induvidual runs in single inning and srilanka could reach 500 run mark.
Well, he contributed to the downfall as the chief selector. Made a lot of irrational and erratic decisions. I have great respect for Jayasuriya as a player, but he was never a good manager/selector.
Neither Jayasuriya nor Arjuna Ranathunga did any good to Sri Lankan cricket since they became politicians, they became true politicians and did whatever to stay in power.
Although we are not well aware, he is / was a hero for most of other cricket playing nations. I personally know that most of Indian fans say their hearts were not properly working when Sana in batting.
You are correct, he didn't retire at the correct stage, that is why it was exposed.Every champion has a time of decline, main problem is they do not understand it properly.
Nalinda Jayasinghe ofcourse he was one of best batsmen of 90's. He played some exceptional innings specially against India. He was a nightmare for bowlers since 1996 WC. We Indian always wanted to get rid of him asap any day.
there is smthing special about 90s era--sachin lara sanath gilly...high quality batsman in front of top bowlers also sanath is a very underrated bowler
How stylish he is... My childhood was soo much lucky to watch him destroying all the frontline ballers with his fearless batting. Even after falling wickets one after one he didn't want to change his rhythm. 💜️
I started watching cricket in 1996 and was admiring Sanath Jayasuriya even though Sachin was my favorite. Then after few years similar batsman came for india in the name of virender sehwag
Sana and Kalu was the innovation of former captain and vice captain of Sri Lanka.In 90 s no t20$ just play 250 for 50 overs in batting track is winning score but SL operners played like recent t20 in that period.Also when they batting more than 15 overs like tsunami damage to opposites.Golden era of SL cricket .No ordinary players like SL present team.Played some good cricket and most of times came to finals in big matches
At that time cricket is so interesting & competitive then now a days. Every team has some great names Kallis, Pollock, Jayasuriya,Sanga, Murli, Gilly, heydon, McGrath, warne, Ponting, Sachin, sahwag Ganguly, inzenam, Yunis, akhtar, Collingwood, Strauss, Flintoff, vitory , Chandrapaul,Lara
What a fantastic cricketer he is. Even in the modern day cricket i have not seen any player closer to his skills. I was lucky to watch cricket in this era. Good old days.
In 90's Jayasuriya used to bat @ 7/8. Arjuna ranatunga paved the way for jayasuriya and Kalu to take the risk and make use of first 15 overs. Even if they got out early he would take the responsibility. That's how jayasuriya became master blaster
He don't care any bowler, any country, any score level, he needs to do his best to his country and cricket world. that is why I love to SANATH JAYASURIYA forever.🇱🇰☸🙏🌍🇱🇰

This combination- Sanath and Tharanga proved that there is no need to have left-hand and right-hand combination for good partnationships
I have never saw such a beautifully timed batsman in the world.
Perfect strokes with perfect timing 👌
Jaysuriya taught how to open ODI innings. It was the beginning of untold T20 Era. The great legend of devastating batting.
Sanath Jayasurya was a beast. A pure savage who ruined oppositions gameplan by his destructive batting. A Legend. Love and respect from India🙏🏻
In 90's Jayasuriya used to bat @ 7/8. Arjuna ranatunga paved the way for jayasuriya and Kalu to take the risk and make use of first 15 overs. Even if they got out early he would take the responsibility. That's how jayasuriya became master blaster
The living Super Man !
