Murali

Murali has this to say about his ex-captain Arjuna Ranatunga...

Q: Who was the most influential person in your cricket career?
Murali: Arjuna as my first captain and he did a lot of things for me. During the difficult times in Australia he protected me a lot. If he had not be as strong as he was I may not have broken the record today.
