Sri Lankans got so greedy, that Murali missed a great opportunity to end his career in style. He ended his carreer in test matches with a wicket and he did end the Semi finals with a wicket. But Sanga got so greedy that he played Murali, who couldn't even move his finger properly. See what happened now? Lately, Sri Lanakans are behaving unsportsmanlike conduct.

do u play a game called Cricket?? fr the words u have described it seems that u dont know who is murali. i have associated with him and he is not a Chucker!!!
Murali though a great bowler and a fine human, cannot be termed as the greatest off spinner of all times merely because stats back him. India's Erapalli Prasanna, English man Jim Laker and Windies Lance Gibbs were far greater bowlers. Of all these three, Prasanna was in my opinion the best of the lot, he was a magician, an earlier day Warnie with the ability to take wickets on any surface anywhere in the world. Flight, loop and turn were his attributes and he made the ball talk at will and the batsmen more often than not ended up getting fooled. Sir Gary Sobers, Clive Lloyd, Sir Vivian Richards, Ian and Greg Chappell, and many other greats incl Zaheer Abbas and Asif Iqbal all rated him very highly and the best spinner that had ever faced.
I wish the WC Final Presentation Ceremony had feted the him at the end of his last appearance before retirement. if it was not in protole, better ICC amend the protocole
Murali, you are a great sportsman.. we will all miss you...You deserve this rest...we wish you all a happy retired life.. Srilanka is proud of you in their team and we south Indians are proud to have you as our son in law.......Enjoy your retired life....

ICC is dead. No other great bowlers in the past did not allow to chuck. Whereas Murali made world record by Javlin throw.
People here coment on accomplishe people as if they are big accomplishers. The real accomplishers dont waste time here on blogs (yes including me). Stop writing non-sense about Murali or Sachin, Saurav or for that matter Ponting. Try to achieve even a fraction of what these people have achieved, Your life will be good for ever.
