Sandakan's Warne-like dismissal of Burns

Sandakan's Warne-like dismissal of Burns

Sri Lanka's first ever chinaman bowler Lakshan Sandakan has bowled Joe Burns with a ripper of a delivery, bringing back memories of some of Shane Warne's best deliveries.

The Test debutant produced an amazing amount of spin to fool Burns and force him to chop the ball back onto his own stumps, after the ball pitched well outside off stump.

Sandakan was a constant threat against the Aussie batting lineup, and told media he has four variations of his delivery.

Sandakan isn't the only bowler to channel Shane Warne in recent times.
