THE" FAREWEL " TO THE BOWLING BRADMAN..



One last time and cricketing legend and bowling "bradman " will be a point of discussion for the cricketing fraternity and will be a matter of the history books of cricket.
For one last time in Test cricket, that most controversial bowling arm of our times will release the ball. For one last time, many of us will enjoy the experience of watching the greatest offspinner the world has seen. For one last time, some of us will call him a chucker. For one last time, every one of us will laugh as we see him slog joyously to the on side. For one last time, the slow motion replays will linger on his conspiratorial smile, on that whirring right arm, on those eyes that almost pop out at release, on that final shudder of the body after he pivots and comes to rest, and on his eager face that follows the trajectory of the ball. In the years to come, it will be something to say that we have seen Muttiah Muralitharan bowl.
Murlidharan,s retirement will be and to a cricketing era which was started by the legend himself . he came into the international canvas when the spinners were struggling to make a mark.it was the time when the cricket lovers had witnessed the complete dominance of the marshall,s garnars and the roberts . he came into the scene and revolutionized the spin bowling .
murlitharan,s smile and sense of humour will be missed by all. flawless cricketing career and consistency has been the main stay of his career.made his test debut in year 1992 and has been the pillar for the srilankan cricket team . he has taken 792 wickets in tests and 515 in odi,s.
800 wickets can he ?? will be a great farewell to a legend i ..and if does not, it does not matter as he has not left any thing to prove ..
