Re: appaling

its very shocking and sad to see that shane "momma's boy" Warne is winning this poll and not murali. Probably becoz one eyed aussie fans make up the majority of this forum :rolleyes: O well ur entitled to have ur opinion.

IMO Murali is the best bowler EVER.

No. They are almost inseperable.

But IMO Warne is better.

 

[Swervy]

exactly...they are two totally different types of bowler...but the performance of both is roughly the same...they are two shining lights of the modern era..can we not just leave it at that.

i thought here would be more kiwi's and Englishmen than aussies...

Nope.

Whether Murali chucks or not, I reckon Warne (at his peak) was a better bowler anyway.

As a matter of fact this is incorrect. Warne was at his peak between 1993-97 and Murali has been at his peak since 2000.

Agreed. If you look at the facts Murali wins hands down.

I'd say that there's pretty equal between Aussies, English, Indians and New Zealanders.

Slightly behind is Pakistanis and then a gap to the West Indians, Sri Lankans and South Africans.

Then there's Neil.

Then there's Neil.

It's because I'm Northern, isn't it?

Or Ginger?

 

[marc71178]

No, Bangladeshi.

 

[age_master]

Warne at home: 50 tests 225 wickets @ 26.15
Warne away: 54 tests 239 wickets @ 26.76
Warne Neutral: 3 tests (v Pak) 27 wickets @ 12.66

Murali at home:49 tests 309 wickets @ 20.17
Murali away: 36 tests 176 wickets @ 27.81

Murali at Galle: 9 matches, 71 wickets @ 14

Murali certainly is the master of explointing favourable conditions, but accoring to this isn't particularly lethal away from home.

Murali in Australia: 2 tests 3 wickets @ 116

 

[marc71178]

He's surely got more than 17 at Galle?!

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Yep. It's more like 71 wickets at Galle... in 9 Tests. :wow:

No, Bangladeshi.

Well you learn something new everyday.

Well you learn something new everyday.

Neil will be shocked as well!

Re: Re: appaling

Agreed. If you look at the facts Murali wins hands down.

Only if you value certain facts above others.
The facts I value most indicate they're both equal to all intents and purposes.
