Murali's 709th

[BoyBrumby]

Who's it gonna be?

 

[andmark]

Collingwood. He bats when the pitch is cracked and the spinners are on.

 

[andruid]

I reckon he'll get it polishing off the tail

 

[Pup Clarke]

He might not get there...

 

[JASON]

He might not get there...

Till the second innings ..possible if England bat first...as the seamers may get a few wickets...particularly Vaas in his 100th Test..

 

[JASON]

I voted Prior based on if England bat second...but it could be any of the top 4 in the second innings too..(if England bat First)

 

[Athlai]

Can anyone imagine Murali not getting his 709th in this series? Would be great odds IMO.

You guys. No offence intended, but there is no way you can tell when he will get his wicket. There is no way you can tell when Collingwood will bat. Or even how well Murali himself will bowl. He might do really badly. Or suffer from a heart attack while walking out of the dressing room. This is all guesswork.

Well TBF Murali is incredibly consistent in the fact he almost never has a bad day, maybe not an exceptional one yet he is anything but a pie chucker. You can also judge who has the most trouble with Murali and how the wickets may fall because of this, it's not a completely blind prediction IMO, you could take a pretty decent educated guess.

 

[33/3from3.3]

Yeah, you can make an educated guess. But it could easily be someone who doesn't struggle against Murali.

English squad in Sri Lanka, IMO most if not all will struggle against Murali.

There's already been a poll about this and only about a dozen bothered to vote then.

Best part is how very different the voting is.

Murali will never take another wicket in Test cricket. You heard it here first.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Bows for andmark, Dasa & Volty then.

Anyone else who votes for Colly is a swine & a blackguard.

Three of the finest cricketing brains on CW, for mine.

Fair effort there from Andmark. I got it right to, although I voted after the fact, so its a marginally less impressive achievement.
