Chaminda Vaas-Stephen Fleming (Five ducks) – In 13 years of Fleming’s international career, it can be said the bowler he struggled against the most was Sri Lanka’s Chaminda Vaas. It goes even without saying as and when he faced Vaas in 40 international matches, the New Zealand’s former skipper lost his wicket to him 14-odd times. Not just this as on five different occasions, Fleming failed to score even a single run and was dismissed for a duck. This is enough to tell the mental pressure which he faced while playing against Vaas. Fleming’s special struggle came against him in ODIs cricket as in Test cricket, he batted with an average of 58.30 against Sri Lanka but the same number dropped down to just 18.68 if we talk about the limited-overs format.
