Chennai Super Kings captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni believes Matheesha Pathirana could become a limited-overs asset for Sri Lanka with a light workload that does not include any test cricket.

Operating with a slingy action, Pathirana has proved his death-overs skills in the Indian Premier League inviting comparisons with compatriot Lasith Malinga, who troubled the best batters of his time with a similar unconventional action.

"I personally think he is not someone who should play a lot of red-ball cricket," Dhoni said alluding to the rigour of test cricket. Sri Lanka should use him sporadically and only for showpiece events organised by the International Cricket Council , Dhoni said. Pathirana has played only one T20 International match and went unsold at the auction ahead of last year's IPL before Chennai brought him to replace an injured Adam Milne.
