Translation (some of Thushara's comments)
"Malinga told me to stick to my natural action and not let coaches change it. He said I could be successful in the long term.
I went to cricket practice for only two days in my school days. I didn't play competitive cricket for the school. I played soft ball cricket later. That's how I made it to this level. SSC helped me get here.
I actually didn't try to emulate Malinga's action. I didn't have this action early on. I wanted to play for my small town's soft ball team. I tried to aim to hit one stump and changed my action to what it is now. Cricket has become my life because of that change now."
