Five consecutive overs by different bowlers

Sri Lanka just used five different bowlers for five consecutive overs. First time I've ever noticed this occurrence, but it's very possible it has happened before.

Here's how it unfolded:

  • Over # 2: Jayasuriya
  • Over # 3: Udana
  • Over # 4: Muralitharan
  • Over # 5: Malinga
  • Over # 6: Ajantha

Just thought it was interesting.

Update: India used seven in a row against SA! They used Zaheer, RP, Ishant, Jadeja, Rohit, Yuvraj, and Harbajhan from overs 3 to 10.

I guess it is much more common in T20 than I thought! :)
