Retirement of Muttiah Muralitharan

( 2010.07.07)
Muttiah Muralitharan, the leading wicket-taker in Tests and ODIs, will retire from Test cricket after the first Test against India in Galle, which begins on July 18. While he will not play the subsequent tri-series, and will pick and choose which ODIs to play in, Murali will be available for selection if the team needs him for the 2011 World Cup, which Sri Lanka is co-hosting.

Murali has taken 792 wickets in 132 Tests and 515 wickets in 337 ODIs.It is better to retire after playing the rest of two Test matches.Also he can hold the record of one an only player to take 800 wickets in Test.Can Murali take his 800th wicket in the 1 st Test.......
