Along with some unbelievable matches, some intense rivalries between the players add another whole level of intensity to the cricket. Sri Lankan Cricket has produced some of the finest cricket talents over the years. Muttiah Muralitharan is an all-time legend of the game.
The star bowler has showcased his excellence on the big stage multiple times. But his dismissal of English Star Naseer Hussain in a friendly match is going crazy. Even years after retiring, fans can’t get enough of the epic showdown between these two cricketing icons.
When Muralitharan Cleans Up Naseer With A Beauty
In Sri Lankan bowling history, Muttiah Muralitharan is a legendary cricketer the country has ever produced. Making his unreal spin as his weapon, he bamboozled several star batters across the globe. Even in retirement, Murali brought back the magic, delivering a near-unplayable ball to outfox English star Nasser Hussain in a friendly, reminding everyone why he's still the spin king.
During England’s tour of Sri Lanka, Muttiah Muralitharan caught up with English stars Nasser Hussain, Rob Key, and Ian Ward. But is it even possible for these stars to stay away from cricket? Definitely, not! Murali couldn’t resist rolling his arm over, and once again, poor Nasser found himself at the mercy of the spin maestro, proving that some battles never get old.
As the English legend took the strike, Muralitharan was seen in his old prime form. With a beautiful delivery, he left Naseer bamboozled and dismissed him. At the moment it took place, the other English legend couldn’t stop laughing.
After watching the ‘Murali Magic’ back, the star couldn’t stop praising the Sri Lankan star. But Muralitharan praised Naseer, saying, “He’s a great player. He‘s scored a 100 against me. So it’s about, on your day you beat people, on their day, they might beat us, " he said.
Unreal Masterclass Of The Sri Lankan Star
Among all the spinners of the cricket world, fans have seen rare talents like Muralitharan. His unreal spinning wizardry turned him into a timeless classic, especially on Sri Lankan soil, where he was nearly unplayable. But even in foreign conditions, he remained a force to be reckoned with. With brilliance, he turned his abilities into an unmatched legacy.
In the longest format, he is the undisputed spin king who secured 800 Test wickets in 133 matches for Sri Lanka with 45 four-wicket hauls and 67 five-wicket hauls. In the 50-over format, he continued his domination, securing 534 wickets in 350 matches.
Over the years, he turned every pitch into his playground, becoming a nightmare for batters around the world. From being the captain’s trusted weapon to all-time spin king of the cricket world, the Sri Lankan star scripted his own success book with his unreal talent.
