I don’t fear any batsmen in the world: Malinga

New Delhi, April 10: Sri Lankan speedster Lasith Malinga, who grabbed Indian Premier League season IV’s first fiver, today said that he is not intimidated by any of the world-class batsmen in action at IPL, including Delhi dasher Virender Sehwag.

The ‘slinger’ from the Emerald Island believes in playing to his strength and that is bowling yorkers and slower balls.

Malinga bowled yorkers at will as his deadly five-wicket haul helped Sachin Tendulkar-led Mumbai Indians crush Delhi Daredevils by eight wickets in their IPL match at the Feroz Shah Kotla ground here.

“I have no fear of any batsmen in the world whether it’s Delhi skipper Virender Sehwag or anyone. I just back my ability to bowl as fast as I can. I think of bowling accurate yorkers and slower balls.
