In terms of overall career accomplishments, I think Sachin just pips over Murali.

Tendulkar easily. Murali has a hole in his record(Australia and in India). Tendulkar's longevity further improves his case.

I disagree. Murali's wpm and number of 10 fors is unreal. Sachin has the most 100s but then he's played the most tests. Ditto his runs aggregate. Do I think Murali is the better cricketer? No. He failed vs toughest tests of his time ie away to India and Australia. Whereas Sachin had passable tours home and away McWarne.

I'm sure @Burgey would have loved for SL to tour here more often.
