But basically Sultan is trying to make out Murali has a disproportionally
large number of tailenders in his haul and Warne doesn't, yet the bald
stats would rend to indicate that the ratios are pretty similar.
But just as well we never get anyone here criticising Murali except for
occasional comments about a suspect action

Murali has a distinct advantage playing on the piches in SL. Warne on
the other hand has had to battle it out on pitches suiting the quicks.

Also what support did Murali have at the other end except for Vaas? They
just play him defensively and attack the others. But he is STILL good enough
to grab wickets. He is an absolute ***y legend, just like Warne is.
