‘To face it was quite difficult, especially in those spinning conditions in Sri Lanka

It is a great achievement, and I have sent my congratulatory messages to Murali.”

Wasim Akram :

Wasim Akram quoted to ESPN-Star “Murali is something phenomenal. Words are not enough to explain how exceptional he is. I don’t think anyone will even come close to taking 800 wickets. The number not only highlights the man’s exceptional skills, it reflects the passion and discipline of a great sportsman.’
