Mendis has a brilliant ODI, T20 record. He has a tendency of picking up a lot of wickets together. But when he goes dry, he has hardly any luck.
If i were to pick from one of these two for my Fantasy XI, i would pick Narine simply because there is a lot more in his bowling than Mendis. He can turn the ball quite a bit-both ways. Narine is also more aggressive and attacking, keeping the batsman guessing. Mendis is all accuracy and subtle variations. Much of his wickets come from lack of concentration, or batsman making mistakes rather than getting beaten by skill.
