Kevin Pietersen hails Lasith Malinga as the greatest death bowler in history

Kevin Pietersen has hailed Sri Lanka legend Lasith Malinga and West Indies hero Sunil Narine as two of the best T20 bowlers of all time.

Former England star Pietersen chose Malinga as the greatest death bowler in history and Narine as the best T20 spinner, admitting he had ‘no idea’ how to play the West Indian.

‘Lasith Malinga. He was as good as it gets when it comes to death bowling,’ Pietersen said.
