Which doesn't have anything to do with playing for longer, especially since he was banned for a year.a massive zebra said:Warne has more wickets because he has played 30 more matches.

Exactly. A lot of people who voted for Warne were Australian, Kiwi or English, who have both seen Warne quite a lot. I've seen Murali once that I can remember, and that was in the Super Test. I voted for Warne because I've seen him play so much, which is why a lot of Aussies will do the same. Englishmen and Kiwis have seen a lot of him, and in series that have been spurred on by the rivalry between the countries and therefore people remember than more. There's almost no rivalry between Australia and Sri Lanka, so there's not much point in remembering a series between the two.a massive zebra said:Likewise, I can understand people voting for Tendulkar over Pollock because most prefer players they have seen over those they have not
We've already got him, unless you want one of his brothers.honestbharani said:Hadlee
Actually, I just consider Warne a better bowler, all-round. Murali is, of course, an all-time great, and quite close to Warne, but I am fairly set in who I would prefer in a team to play a general set of matches in various conditions against various oppositon.adharcric said:guys i really don't get how you all can take warne over murali so easily. murali has a better economy rate, strike rate, average, wicket rate than warne. warne only has more wickets because he's played much longer. so the only reasons i can think of is a) you are taking longevity into account too much b) you consider murali a chucker c) you are considering warne's batting ability d) you are seriously biased. btw, i'm not a murali supporter or anything, just wondering why you all are choosing warne.

Ridiculious people really.....
Why should we lose batting depth when it makes little difference to the bowling attack?Hodgo7 said:Warne for sure.
