[QUOTE="chandikagunawardhana, post: 5197138, member: 11539"] [B]Sri Lanka's greatest fast bowler[/B] Chaminda Vaas has announced that he will retire from Tests after the third match against Pakistan starting Monday [center][IMG]http://i29.tinypic.com/2vtcspz.jpg[/IMG][/center] Highlights of his career in the longer version of the game January 1993 Takes 12 wickets in consecutive matches in the P Saravanamuttu Trophy, representing Colts Cricket Club. Against Singha Sports Club, Vaas nets match figures of 6 for 54 and a few days later takes seven against Moratuwa, which propels him into the national spotlight. December 1993 Gets a chance to represent Sri Lanka Board President's XI against the touring West Indians. August 26, 1994 Makes Test debut against Pakistan in Kandy. March 15, 1995 Becomes the first Sri Lankan to take ten wickets in a Test and bowls Sri Lanka to their first win in an overseas Test. On the final day in Napier Vaas rips out the New Zealand tail to end with match figures of 45.3-13-90-10. In the first innings Vaas helps Sri Lanka brush aside New Zealand for 109, taking 5 for 47. November 2001 Takes 26 wickets in the 3-0 rout of West Indies, becoming only the second fast bowler, after Imran Khan, to take 14 wickets in a match in the subcontinent. August 2004 Takes six wickets in the second innings at the SSC to deliver Sri Lanka their first-ever series win over South Africa by handing out a comprehensive thrashing. Along with rookie fast bowler Lasith Malinga, a canny Vaas exploits conditions far better than the visitors and in the fourth innings the pair terrorises South Africa's batsmen. September 2004 Gains recognition for his achievements when he is selected for the World Test and ODI XI at the inaugural ICC Awards. July 2005 Vaas completes another excellent contest against West Indies, taking 13 wickets in a 2-0 drubbing to become Man of the Series. December 2005 Reaches the 300-wicket milestone in Tests against India, having passed the mark in ODIs on the tour to Zimbabwe. June 2007 After 97 Tests, Vaas scores his maiden century, against Bangladesh. December 2007 Plays his 100th Test, against England in Kandy, the third Sri Lankan to do so. In the third Test in Galle, Vaas is the main beneficiary of England's ineptitude in their first innings, taking four wickets as they fold for 81 in 31 overs. March 2008 Helps wrap up a historic first Test win in the West Indies with only 16 minutes remaining on the final day in Guyana. Backs up a first-innings unbeaten 54 with 5 for 61 in West Indies' second innings. July 19, 2009 Announces retirement from Test cricket. [/QUOTE]
