We salute Murali

Posted on: 15 July 2010 by (No Comments)

The legend that is Muttiah ‘Murali’ Muralitharan plays his last test this weekend – at Galle against India.’ We at Experience Travel salute one of the greatest players that has ever played the game.

There is a great article here from Steve James in The Telegraph if you ever wondered what it felt like facing him..

Galle is a wonderful test match venue – indeed watching Murali tormenting the Indian batsmen as I drunk arrack and sang ‘aint no sunshine’ with the local cheerleaders in 2001 is one of my favourite Sri Lankan moments.
