He has dominated specially in the white ball formats. When the batsmen dominated in the shortest format of the game, he had his own way of dominance there.
He has played 68 T20Is so far and taken 90 wickets with an average of 19.77. In the 50 overs format ge has taken 301 wickets in 204 games he played with an average of 28.92.
But the longest format of the game was not like the other two formats for the Lankan fast bowler. He had taken 101 wickets in 30 games he played and he had called of his presence in red ball format too early.
Now he is in the edge of his retirement due to the age factor and the injury concerns. Injuries are keeping him apart from the game now. On his birthday lets go down to the memory lane of his top 5 spells in the game.
This spell was delivered in the opening encounter of Asia Cup 2010. Pakistan were chasing 242 runs and their chase was well on track.
Then came this Yorker magician. In his first spell he took two wickets with the new ball. At the final stage game was nicely poised for Pakistan as they needed 26 runs in last six overs.
In his final spell he removed the three tail enders in a mean time and ensured a memorable win for Sri Lanka as they defeated Pakistan by 16 runs.
Even though Lasith Malinga is not successful in Tests as in ODIs and T20Is, but this spell had turned out to be a game changing spell for Sri Lanka against India. This spell can be said as his all time best bowling in the longest format of the game.
This spell was a real special one for him as he made a come back in to the Test team after three years wait. And that match was the final test match for the Lankan legend Muttiah Muralitharan.
Lasith Malinga took a memorable five wicket haul that included the wickets of Gambhir, Dravid, Tendulkar and Dhoni in his come back game and enusred a winning note farewell for the spin legend.
After four years of the opening encounter between Sri Lanka and Pakistan in Asia Cup 2010, they met each other again in the opener of the Asia Cup 2014 in 
Taking a five wicket haul in a T20 game is a mammoth task for the bowlers as the format always has the upper hands of batsmen. Only some bowlers have managed to achieve this unique feet.
In a T20I World Cup game against England in his home country Malinga achieved this unique feet. When England were chasing 170 runs he had dismissed three English batsman in the third over of the game.
At the end he dimissed Samit Patel, who played a foghting knock for England in 19th over and ensured a win for Sri Lanka. Obviously Malinga was awarded as the man of the match for his five wicket haul.
