How to pronounce Sri Lankan names

I picked this from cricinfo. One fan has emailed during the NZ vs Sri Lanak match.

Bonggo: "Many commentators have pointed out the difficulty in pronouncing the names of the Sri Lankan XI in the past. It is not that difficult if you can read English. Let me tell you the best way of pronouncing some of those difficult name those names and trust me they come very close to the original:

Jayasuriya: Jaya Sue Rear
Kandamby: Can Dumb Bee
Malinga: Maa Linger
Kaluvitharana: Kalu With Are Runner
