Happy to see botham being hit for Sixers by LRD mendis. Kaluperuma ranasinghe romesh n ravi ratnayake DS de Silva kurruppu dias well asantha de mel kurrupuaracchi
WOW
I initially confued him with Aravind D'Silva. Uncanny resemblance in stature and style
Very solid batsman.
Simply superb! No wonder Aravinda and others came along a few years later. Mendis seems to have been the prototype.
A mirror to the west Indian batsmen. He and Diaz were a joy to watch. 105 105 in both innings against India.
Botham was an underrated batsman and an overrated bowler. He had lot of potential as a batman which could never be exploited.
English bowlers got a real pasting, tremendous hitting, Jayasuriya style counterattack. When I was in school, Mendis and Roy Dias were very popular from Sri Lanka.
botham does not know what has hit him.
reminds me of Arvinda on many of these shots.
Mendis was a key figure for Sri Lanka to gain test status. Unfortunately when they got it his best days were almost over and Sri Lanka didn't get enough international matches for them to prosper
When lankan cricket was pure joy. Loved Mendis, Dias, Wettimuny etc ...
Great clip. Whilst Dulip scored 111 Sidath W got 190 show us clip you have Thanks

My favourite batsman was Aravina de Silva
They said, Magic Mendes ❤!!
Ian Botham hooked for 3 sixes in an over by Mendidls. How often did Botham get hooked for sixes? So many times. You really wonder what his bowling average was after the Packer players came back into international cricket. He raced to 100 wickets very fast but his last 200 or do wickets likely came at a much higher average and high strike rate. Even on seaming wickets such as Headingly, he would take wickets but be expensive. I recall Imran Khan hooking him out of the ground in 1982. So many of Imran's boundaries were hooks of Botham on a seaming track. Duleep Mendis and the Sri Lankans approached batting like the West Indians. Roy Dias was as high a calibre batsman as I have seen.
Hadlee was a much better bowler. Botham was bluster ..
hey there nice upload with good quality for that period.. any chance you have SL tour of NZ in 1995 or 1997 one dayers
They were regarded as babies of cricket. This was a taster of things to. come from the tiny island of my motherland.
😊😊
L R Duleep Mendis, what a fearless batter. A treat to watch & a testament of pure class!
Batsman ... if you don't mind. Detest the modern trend to dumb down cricket's vocabulary.
@@PraveenKumar-sr6ne Dumbest mind, sad!
Best stylish Batsmen Of.Lanka

Omans coach 2024.
Famous 3 sixes in a row against Botham.❤❤❤❤
Sri Lanka's best captain. Respect from Pakistan 🇵🇰.
one of Lankan Legends who took Country's Name to Cricket Grand Stand
Brilliant stuff from Mendis - I love Tom Graveney's commentary as well utterly delightful!
Mendis and Dias were world class batsmen. Their careers were at the tail end when SL got test status and they got chances to play international cricket regularly. Prime Mendis and Dias would have been fun to watch!
No, they didn't get the chance to play international cricket regularly. They only got maximum 4-5 test matches per year. If they had the chance to play test matches regularly, their career stats would have definitely been much higher.
ROY Disas good batsman
Mendis and Aravinda are similar style of batting 😊
Very very true❤
Mr.Duleep 🇱🇰🇱🇰 Men's Cricket Captain Legend Cricketer ❤🏏🏏🇱🇰💞💕🙏🙏❄❄

ඒ කාලේ මැච් පැරදුනත් අපි දුක් උනා තමයි ඒත් කවදාවත් කේන්ති ආවේ නෑ
Only three years after the Test status were given.
Mendis was great brave batsman
For srilankan cricket before jaya suriya he is jayasuriya . Before aravinda he is aravinda
Duleep Mendisv❤ 🏏🇱🇰 Lovely to see his hard hitting shots.. Not scared of any bowler during his time.
Brilliant…love from India …watched this because of the book CHINAMAN by shehan karunatilaka
His voice is different from his face and body
