Great to see Saqlain praising Murali.But to me,Saqlain was the greatest of all.He was the inventor of Doosra.Murali and Bhajji picked from him.If Saqlain had continued in Pakistan team he would have surely got heaps of wickets by this time.But due a lapse in the form and unpredicatble Pakistan board Saqlain lost his place in the team.Can't forget that classical 2 match test series b/w India and Pakistan in 1999.Saqlain was at his devastating best in that series

Yes, it is nice to see Saqlain praising Murali. Saqlain was a great bowler. But Saqlain was not the inventor of Doosra. The name came into existence because of him, after Tony Greig noticed Moin asking him to bowl Doosra.
But our own Jasu Patel bowled it in 1959, Sonny Ramadhin, who played for the West Indies, bowled it in the 1950s. Many others have done it earlier.

Boss, Just try to respect the achievements. Thats why cricket is called a great leveller. Murali is definitely one of the best spinners and lara is one of the better batsmen.

Re: is this statement grammaticality correct??

Dont expect Pakistani's to be grammatically correct. They are always poor with their English....
There should not be another Murali [ He's a chucker], but it won't survive for even another 10 years. This is for sure. The game of Cricket is going to die. the ICC and BCCI are already making sure that it dies.

That Murali is achucker has been established by Murali itself. He has said that he is not bothered what others say - it is the god who made him like this. Having earned all the fame and money he wants, this is the same thing any person with guilty conscious will say.

I did not know that cricket is divided into Hindu Cricket, Muslim cricket, Christian cricket etc. Thanks for the info
I wish murali take 8 wickets in the match and achieve the feat...I am an hardcore indian team fan but i dont mind it losing this time just for the reason murali to achieve the magic figure 800...Love you murali...you are the best

India doesnt need to loose the game though!!!!! 4/150 and 4/170 figures in both the innings in his last test match would not do any bad to India... What say people????
