He has retired almost a decade ago and yet he still got that accuracy.... Some men are just born genius... He's one of those
This is a very old video mate but you're right on the accuracy bit

I met this legend. Humblest person ever to meet. I work at a bank in Sri Lanka. The Great Murali was a client and oneday he visited the bank with his family. I had the chance to see him up close and talk to him in person. I told him how honoured I was to see him in person. His reponse was, "Brother, dont be like this, Im also a normal human being like u." He literary doesnt like being highlighted in public. Trust me. Nobody cant be more humble or kind as a person. I love him not just bcuz hes legendary cricket, best spinner of all time but hes also a man with a very big heart.
What a lovely story. Thank you for sharing
Nice
i remember an interview where he was ordering dal and roti, and he told the reporter wow this dal is so costly it must be made with gold 😀
What a great incidence bro where do u liv in Lanka?
@@madeovstarstuff Thank u ❤❤❤
Can we also appreciate how hilarious Nasser is too lmao
Who’s that?
oh come on.. Nazar is an old guy. he retired a long time before murali retired. He was a dangerous player those days who Sri lankans fear of. I still remember those days..
20 odd off 70 balls got me pretty good 😂
*faces two balls*
Hussain: "this is the longest I've batted against him"
Hahahaha
Hahahahahahahahahahahha
Lololololololololololol
Longest he’s batted against anyone
LoL
As an Indian I have a massive respect for him.he is the pride of Asia.
No he's not ..... He wouldn't be here if they didn't changed laws FOR him. Disgusting
Pride of the game.

As an Aussie I can honestly say, I love this bloke. What a talent, just amazing. I miss having Murali and SKW blowing our minds when they have the ball in hand.
So true bro 😎
They were monsters with a cricket ball. It felt really good watching my Indian batsmen score runs on them because it was so hard for them to do.
RIP
Before all the analysis and masterclasses and slow motion replays, you couldn't see the intricacies of spin bowling. The idea seemed to be that off-spin was generated by this textbook "unscrew the lightbulb" technique, which couldn't be further from the truth. Pretty much every recent great spin bowler - irrespective of whether their stock delivery is a leg break or an off break - generates spin from wrist movement. Nathan Lyon doesn't move his fingers at all. Graeme Swann used to spin the ball by squeezing the ball out across his second knuckle but the squeeze comes from hand and wrist movement.
Essentially, what made Murali so good was he was bowling off spin with the revs of a leg spinner and he could control it. His influence is massive.

12:14 - Rob Key giving the classic "itch the head" signal to Nass when he's going to bowl the Doosra
😂 Yeah noted otherwise he couldn't pick him
Noticed He did it twice at same time
is that true :D or a post interpretation ? good either way :D
I think murali noticed it and he didn't tell what he is going to bowl in last delivery
I’m english.,.ive met a few Sri Lankan’s over the years and without exception everyone has been extremely nice people.
Thank you sir / mam !
I’m an Indian my mate’s from Sri Lanka cheerful and fun guy to be with.
You’ve met nice people nothing to do with their nationality
I’m south Asian ..I have lived in England for one year ..I had trouble finding nice English ppl ..esp if they were whi te….
But thank God that struggle came to an end ..when I left Uk ..
But then after a while I did meet a friendly white English gentleman in Middle East..a little self pompous just like most English ppl but still friendly and I didn’t understand why he was some what friendly ..then it dawned on me that he was not in England ..so I guess what I’m saying is “only nice English man is an English man abroad “
@@thepoet456 You’ve not met many English people then as only a minority are pompous.
If he had DRS his wicket count would be way higher.. May be 1000 test wickets
That is true for most bowlers. Umpires are used to giving benefit of doubt to batsmen.
100% true😊
Nope, all would be disallowed for throwing...
@@rowanwhittingham689 hmm murali put on a steel brace on his arm to prove his action was legal. Take your head out your ass and respect this Legend.
Sudagaran Jeyaraj don’t copy people’s comments
Murali was something else, there was only one of him, and there will not be another. I have so many memories of me and my friends just being puzzled by his talent. Legend. Love from Pakistan
He was something else a massive chucker. Nothing on mushy ahmed
The humbleness of Murali is a lesson to be learnt for all.
He’s such a lovely guy and the way he explains everything is exactly what any youngster needs to hear getting into the game
That Wicketkeeper Is Very Lucky Man... Because Life Once Got Oppertunity For Keeping This Kind Of bowler Balls....

I also wicket keep for murali when i was 15 or 16 :D and I was there for his last match xD i still have his signature on my cap :)
@@mahimainduwara643 what was his turn?
This man. This legend - once I was in Sri Lanka for holiday with the fam. We were at a church and I just looked around because I had nothing to it. I saw this man and I asked my father if it was him.. we both hesitated because me and my father are huge fans of him. My father was nervous but quickly took the chance and asked him. Murali laughed and said “yes it’s me” with a really funny smile. We asked if we could take a picture and he said that it was no problem for him. After shaking hands and talking he asked me if I played. He told me that I should always believe and just do my best. What a man - Murali. The greatest bowler of all time!!
Umm sir you should correct your mistake and change ‘Muesli’ to ‘Murali’
@@Justafacebutscaryhahaheheh haha my bad - I forgot that I even wrote this!
He is a legend,
He is still excellent crickter,
He is the Highest Wicket Taker in Tests and ODI's as well.
It an honor to watch him again on internet.
Final Remarks: Legend.
Not ODI’S but still massive respect
I just want to point out the precision of that kid behind the stumps. He even read the doosra that Mr.Hussain missed. Never an easy task when you're keeping to a legend like Murali. Well done lad 👍
I am sure he is not kid..he is a young man if you see clearly.
Methmal sir

Who decided to put the camera there? Can't appreciate the spin at all.
Was just mumbling the same thing myself
Didn’t expect to see you here at all. Are you an offie?
@@davidthomas9960 Failed leggie turned medium pacer. 70mph off breaks that don't really break and are invariably too short for the speed they're delivered. I wish I had just learnt to bat instead.

He may lose his job on the spot.
He always legend, salute I am from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 🇱🇰🇱🇰 ❤️
He had the most beautiful yet devastating loop through the air yet was still able to bowl at an incredible pace for a spinner,you could see just how fast the ball would bounce and spin at the batsmen,to be able to do all that and still bowl with the astonishing accuracy as murali did he must of been an absolute nightmare to bat against
Never seen such humble cricketers like the Lankans . I always admire the focus and discipline of sanga and mahela, Murali sir . These cricketers are idols of every youngster. Love you lankan bros ♥️🇮🇳🙏
Showed his intelligence too. That last ball was just absolute mind games
Sanga and Mahela were legends....but Murali was a chucker

@@whyshuvam2077 FYI at that time most of so called legends were chucking or in other words not within that range,thats why they had to change.. lol do you really think ICC controlled by england and aussies at that time change a law just for an asian 🤣🤣🤣 murali told this without saying the players names
Nazar is a completely different person than his playing days, I can remember once nazar sleged murali while walking towards the dressing room and got fined by the icc and now he is one of the best commentators who genuinely appreciate player's talents.
Nasser is a gentleman cricketer. Hard on the field friendly off it.
Do you know one thing both nazar and muralis mother tongue is Tamil. Why they gonna sledge
@dinesh kumar dhana singh So Cannot same language person sledge each other.? How does the language relate to sledging or not.
@anonymous opinions it's how Aussies play all sport. Hard on it but after the game it's beer time 🍺
They both are native tamilians.
48 year old legend who retired a decade ago and still got this accuracy is insane..
What an absolute pleasure to watch over the years. So lucky to see Shane Warne and Murali during the same era. We have been spoilt!
Funny thing is that his doosra spins more than my leg break 😂. Truly a champion ❤️ 🔥 💯

People can say thrower/chucker all they like, not a single legend of the game thinks his bowling action was illegal
Bumble says he chucks it. He also deceived the ICC when they videoed his doosra, he didn't bowl the same delivery in front of the cameras as he did in matches. No legend of the game talks about him as the greatest. They all know Warne was the GOAT.
@@criticalthinker3006 bumble plays football. Don't mind him.
You think Warne is not a legend? Whoa!

There is no inkling of doubt that Murali is Brilliant. But I feel we should also appreciate how humble Nasser Hussain is.
Got goosebumps! Reminded me the old beautiful days when after watching any cricket game we used to try to copy who had most impact on us and Murali was one of them. we, 90's generation, witnessed a whole lot of legendary players at a time.
Say what you want about his action, you have to appreciate how open and willing the man was to prove people wrong. Like he said he never bowled with long sleeves. A true champ. Bowled marathon spells and carried the SL attack on his own.
No I don't appreciate🤣🤣🤣wat have to🤣🤣🤣

For all he did in the game, Murali's real strength has been with the Foundation of Goodness and the improvement of lives throughout Sri Lanka..
Sri Lanka should look to get him in a coaching role. His analysis of Randiv shows he definitely knows what changes he'd make
I got introduced to Cricket randomly through a recommended CZcams video. Such an amazing, interesting and exciting sport. Not sure why there is ZERO advertisement or interest out here in the West. A lot of people don't even know what Cricket is (Canada/USA), and I would not have unless I saw a random video. I hope more people are exposed to the sport, it is wonderful !
I hear you.
Could be its the love of fast paced thrill sports. But some sports like golf are kind of the opposite and still generates decent bucks in the west.
People are kind of blind to the thinking, strategy when they see cricket. But as this video shows, there is a lot of thought put behind actions.
Almost like watching anime battles/fights in a way. 🤣
Its a wonderful game bro...
A lot of people exposed to it even at a younger age don't like it either. Including me. I find it to be too slow paced. Same thing with baseball. I prefer soccer. Non-stop action.
The beauty of Cricket can be best appreciated when following and watching test Cricket (5day game) if no time start by watching on TV the first session of the first day, then follow the progress through the news. if you find the time watch another session or two on the next days..but keep following the game. Because with one bad session the side on top could end loosing the test.. its like life my friend. Its better than reading a business book.
@@beekarinsaan yea it depends. Test cricket is slow paced. T20 is more fast and exciting. ODI is like a mixture of the two.
I've been watching cricket since 1996 world cup and I've hatred Muralitharan every time he played against India up until 2006. Thereafter it was hard not to love him for his craft. It was only after he retired that I realised that he's one of the best beings to have graced the game of cricket. With that jolly, witty, playful attitude and sense of humour I'm sure he's won lots of hearts all around. Lots of love and respect to Murali from India 🙏🏼 ❤️❤️. And of course, to Nasser Hussain.
Genius cricketer, strike bowler, always had an assassin’s instinct, always switched on yet simple, humble and ready with a sweet smile... they don’t make cricketers like Murali anymore.
Ahhhh that big fat smile of his 😁😁 love it
"Never again will I get the chance to put Murali into The Bryan Adams Swimming Pool" - No one has ever said that before.
Should have called it the Michael Barrymore pool
My favourite thing that I've read about him is the Uncyclopedia article: "causes of death of English test captains" and the entry regarding Andrew Flintoff: living, although in constant hypnosis after having stared into Muttiah Muralitharan's eyes for too long.
lol
The way Nasser reached for his crease after 2nd ball is amazing to watch all those years of batsmen ship still in his muscle memory
So many years after retirement!! If he still decides to play, he would top the ranks even today. What a player!
Legend.
No he wouldn’t mate he’d get smashed and that’s why he retired
@@brownbeardedguy9266he would still get people out and be a tricky bowler to face in a T20. Cricket isn’t very physically demanding in the shorter formats or for spin bowlers. Look at Warne in the IPL
@@brownbeardedguy9266look at his last match against india 😏 he announce 8 wicket before to 800. And that final match he get that 8 wicket against mighty indian team 😏
@@sighfly2928 you man are deluded. Stop meat riding. Warnie played in the IPL at 40 and was much physically stronger than the skinny murali 😂😂. If he could still be playing he would instead of begging the ipl for coaching gigs
how old is he??
Only 46 years old.
You can clearly see his thinking process is legendary.
48
He is nearing 50 and look at the accuracy he still has
This was recorded some time ago
Even after his retirement they are still guessing what is coming . Now my respect has gone up for all the batsmen’s who faced this natural maverick
Excellent piece from the Sky team. Much respect all round.
All the dislikes are from the batsmen who were bamboozled by Murli! 😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂
:D :D Actually
Or from warnie😀
😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣
That lad behind stumps just had his entire life made
Humble as ever, unassumeing and willing as always to pass on his wizardly skills to others. Not holding back. Giving praise to others and not expecting anything in return. True legend.
It's pure joy watching this. I am here after watching Warne's Video (he passed away a few days back). I kept smiling during the entire length of both their videos. Nasser is amazing at describing situations and include characters along in all his TV shows. The admiration of one good professional to the other (special in this case 🙂) just makes it special.
He has been rated as the greatest test bowler by wisden truly a born champion
Man, Watching Murali's delivery from start to finish is like admiring precious art.
He still can be unplayable even after a decade since he retired..one of the best ever spinners in cricket history
He was the best and numbers speak for himself
Much love and respect for Murali. Met him in Perth once, he was super gracious and kind to take a moment with a starry-eyed fan.
The "Smiling Assassin" -perfect name for Murali :)
I remember the first time I saw murali bowl, and I was amazed...I wasn't even sure which arm he had bowled the ball with, and couldn't believe that an offspinner could possibly get the amount of purchase he was getting. Needless to say, he wrecked the proteas line up that day.
Great video, he's very articulate/clear and insightful, and as we can see after all those years of practice, it just takes him a few balls to get it spot on, "Repetition is the mother of skill," as the saying goes :).
He said he'll not bowl a doosra for 2 overs. But then he bowled one after 2 balls. Shows how competitive he is. ❤❤❤❤ Legends are always legends
The last of the greatest breed of spin bowlers...
What a charming guy.....love from India...
This 15 min video gave so much information that an entire modern day game cannot....
Its sad that Srilankan cricket did not retain this gem into the head coaching team or have they? .....wish we get some talented players who can stand out or else its very boring to watch only the top 4 teams play competetive test cricket
Knowledge keeps a man grounded. The more you know, the more humble you are. Such a down to earth legend! We all love him in India.
he was wearing our srh jersey . what a legend !. he was the one that brought us tom moody as a coach and we made 5 play offs in 7 seasons
This is so wholesome. Buy the way you can hear the fizz when he is spinning the ball in his hands
He should thank sangakara for saving so many 4 byes run!
His spinning balls would've reached fine leg or third man if Sanga fails to hold.
Bye runs doesnot go into bowlers account. They are extras
they don't go against the bowler ....
And prasanna jayawardhane
Murali is most underrated spin wizard in world of cricket;
There were days when both Englishmen & Aussies called his action wrong/throw,but nowadays same English media/fmr crics are calling Murali for masterclass
Not everyone. The game where Arjuna took the players off the field, Ian Botham and Tony Greig were hammering the umpires decision in commentry.
@@sumcoz You are saying only one instance,but do commentators talk really matters when a World class bowler like Murali is humiliated to an extent where he had to undergo full body scan to prove his action,he faced racial abuses from Aussie crowd in 2004 and in 2008 they were throwing eggs at him.
But all these doesn't stop him to overpass Aussie spinner Warne to become highest wicket(800) taker in the world
@@prajitskaria8943 Mate, No where in my comment did I say that Murali was treated fairly. He wasn't. All I'm saying is that you mentioned something like "Englishmen & Aussies" like you mean that all of them did it.
All I'm saying is, that there were British and Australian people on Team Murali too. Lets not generalize.
Prajit Skaria as much as I liked him, he was a pure chucker man!! That action was not legit, he’s far worse than Saeed Ajmal!
I thought it was kumble
You make videos of his skill, watch them and love them as much as you can.
Still if he bowls u in competitive cricket, he will still be unplayable.
He had a gift, and his humility made him so special.
Awesome Murli.
Love u from India.
14:45 i got so happy when he said Jayawardana would've been catching that
Lots of love to Muralitharan from Pakistan, I used to copy his action when playing cricket 🏏
I think every cricket fan tried his action.. All of my friends and me to copy his action for fun
Today's kid came here to this legend's bowling.
And a 90s kid like me came here to see those expressions 😍😁
What a great bowling lesson from the legend himself!
Murali the great!!😮 You know you are watching a genius when they can still perform those tricks way after retirement into late age. Murali was an absolute genius and such a humble, likeable character.
He once flipped a coin kept over the wicket with that spin
@Geeky Sammy avaliable on CZcams he and swann coin challenge
Nasser just explained the biggest difference DRS has on the game. Before, 'getting a good stride in' was a perfectly good reason for not giving LBW. Since DRS showed us most of those balls where the batsmen nullified it by planting his front foot straight down the track, would actually have hit the stumps, more and more LBWs are given (by both standing umps and DRS) on the front foot, and the only way you can 'pad out' now is if the ball hits outside the line.
I think the introduction of DRS has been great. I just hated when batsman would stick their pads out.
I guess you can't even stick the pad out anymore as well because if its hitting the stumps and you have no shot on offer you are a gonna
@@Breach-Clear And for that reason young sir, you have been provided with a bat.
@@Debbiebabe69 And the bats seem so big now they're almost as wide as the old style pads.
That and the out-and-out admission by Nasser that he is literally just kicking the ball and not playing a stroke. Hardly revolutionary, but part of a pre-DRS umpire's call in this scenario was always "they played a shot".
Great to see the best in all humility. Humble and very ground to earth.🙏
Greatest bowler ever and greatest legend ever but yet so humble what a guy
The man..The myth..The legend.. best spin bowler I have seen... It was my privilege and a blessing watching this man play... Lots of love and respect from India Murali sir...🙏♥️
man he was not just bowling dusras and off-spinners, he was playing with the mind of the batsmen as well. amazing to see the way he sets up the batsmen
I so love when Masters of their trade show their expertise and skillsets to the masses. He won't show you everything though!!!! 😊😊😊
THANKS MURALI YOU ARE THE GREATEST A THRILL TO WATCH YOU GOD BLESS YOU CRICKET WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN
He just loved his cricket. You will never meet a guy who was as passionate as him. Very happy that he is at Srh guiding future generation
A must watch for cricketers especially spinners who are learning the basics of the game...Genius Murali...looks like today's batsmen dodged a bullet.
Man this video put a smile on my face! Great to see the sportsmanship between Murali and Nasser!
Loved watching this clip. Murali - great servant of the game of cricket, master competitor, cricketing genius, and one of the all time greats. Thank you for sharing your cricketing journey with us through your on-field career and beyond. From Australia.
Murali is a freaky genius. What skills and no action even close to his. What unique talent and temperament to go with it. Almost unplayable till he retired.
Ranatunga, Sanga, Mahela ,Murali were such a humble persons in and off the field.... Sri Lanka won't get the replacements for these Legends again ❤

When Murali explains the science and philosophy behind his bowling and bowls, I feel like im watching anime fights. Legend. 🤣👍
I've always been inspired by Murali's bowling, but, after all these decades, I had no idea that he had such a warm personality and great sense of humour. What a top bloke!
I love how he is so free spirited and keen to educate.. Big ups Murali
😂😂😂😂 this is gold!!! We want more of this!!
Damn! Thank you Sky Sports Cricket England. As an Aussie cricket fan I found that equal parts entertaining and fascinating. It was so good to hear from such a high quality spin bowler that seems so humble, which contrasts so deeply to the Australian spinning legend. Cheers.
Murali only had 3 deliveries - offspinner, topspinner and doosra - but his great accuracy meant that these 3 were enough. In particular, it's amazing the kind of bounce, spin and variety he could produce with his off spin delivery.
He's no less than a magician with the ball...
It would be terrible to face murali... so difficult to read his wrist and variations. Does everything a great spinner needs to:
- turns the ball a lot (in both directions)
- bounce
- zip off the wicket
... so humble too - just a legend.
Hear the revs on the ball when he does that little flip during his runup...he was great to watch always. And such a likeable bloke.
Murali is a Genius. Thoroughly enjoyed his bowling growing up. I watched a crcicket classics episode about him I guess on Star Cricket, he's one of the nicest human beings you'll come across and the way he practised was insane. Huge fan from Pakistan.
You can hear the ball spin like a tornado. What a legend.
He is the greatest bowler among all legends because he got total of 1300 wicket. According to me
Greatest batsmen : sachin
Greatest bowler : Muralitharan.👍
