Spin Legend Muralitharan Admits He Is 'definitely Worried' About Test Cricket's Future
The next best off-spinners after Muralitharan in Test cricket are Australia’s Nathan Lyon (530 wickets) and India’s Ravichandran Ashwin (516 wickets). “I am definitely worried about Test cricket. Every country will play maybe only six or seven Test matches. England and Australia might play the Ashes. But in some other countries, not many people are watching. There will be very little Test cricket.”
“It’s very hard (for someone to surpass 800 Test wickets), because emphasis has shifted to short-form cricket. Also, we played for 20 years. Careers are shorter now,” said Muralitharan, who played 133 Tests for Sri Lanka, to Daily Mail on Monday.
