...

no comparison really - if you want a #3/4 batsman, and/or a #3/4 batsman/keeper then Sangakarra is your man - at the latter he's the best there's been I reckon. If you want a #7 batsman/keeper, Gilchrist is your man - he's the best there's been I reckon

Murali has Just passed Warnie's record.

:?

Chucky has 0 wickets as a bowler

nooooooooooooo baaaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

 

[Dutchy]

Murali finally become the worlds best baseball pitcher?

well done McChuck.

 

[Timbo]

Always have an asterix next to it as far as I'm concerned...

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

i don't even class him as a bowler

big Daz knew the truth from the start

 

[ocko]

i love the smell of bitterness

 

[Panther_Daz]

Well done Murali!

Probably the biggest achievement in the country's history. Amongst the war,poverty and natural disasters you gave the small 3rd world nation something to smile about.

Champion.

 

[ocko]

and a wonderful ambassador for the game too

 

[hineyrulz]

Meh!! but go Jayasuria!! one of the great entertainers of world cricket.

Champion.

As an individual, no doubt, though it would be hard to pass their World Cup win over Australia.

Minnows to World Champions.

Agreed, go Big Daz!

The record aside this is shaping up as a very good test match. Sangakkara is in supreme form at the moment and a good innings from him may steer Sri Lanka to victory. If he falls cheaply, Sri Lanka will struggle.

Sangakkara is yet to get a 100 against England also. That is the only nation he hasnt got a century against. He came close in the First Innings though!

that'd mean that Obelix is next to Warne's??

Fair enough that there might be an asterisk next to Murali's, but there are at least two next to Warne's...


Murali's not the first bowler to have a 'debatable action' - pretty much every offspinner in the history of cricket, Charlie Griffiths (who is lauded) and others.

All that nonsense aside - looks like a potentially very good test

And congrats Murali, even if you graceless buffoons can't bring yourselves to congratulate him - most of the world can

 

[Panther_Daz]

Gotta love todays Telecrap. Apparently "critics savage Murali" However the article has 2 people with quotes against him and 3 pro-murali haha.

 

[ozbash]

Well done Murali.

what a true champion.

 

[Panther_Daz]

Another half century for Sanga

How good has he been going!

Now get to a 100, to complete the set of centuries against all nations!

 

[lockyno1]

Well SL get enough chances against Zimbabwe and Bangladesh to do it..
