Wish Murali was a bowler. Its a pity that we have to compromise on quality and authenticity of game with players like Malinga and Murali making mockery of international sport everytime they are on field.
Remember - ICC had to bend the rules related to bowling action to accomodate Murali. This is really shameful - and since they had to change rules to legalise chucking of Murali - we can safely assume that prior to this change in rule - he was throwing. That is till almost half his career. So almost 50% of his wickets are actually unfortunate events and sheer badluck and bad umpire decisions.
by that we conclude Darryl Hair was right in declaring his throws as throws :-)

well Murali did spin the ball but was never that exciting as Warne.

not so clean action, so not so exciting to watch as Warne... though he got 90 less wickets than murali, but most times they have come on not so spin friendly pitches of australia,england...

How many wickets against India? In 1998 got thrashing from Sidhu, Laxman and Sachin.
the legend is the only one giving opportunities to new generation by giving teaching them techniques whether it is batting, bowling, or fielding. Through this legend we have got some good cricket whose names was unaware for indian cricket. He can be a good coach for Team India also. ALL THE BEST MR. WARNE. YOU ARE THE GREAT LEGEND AND WILL BE ALWAYS. THANKS GOD TO GIVE HIM GOOD HEALTH
