Sri Lanka’s spin-bowling legend Muttiah Muralitharan said he was definitely worried about the future of Test cricket, adding that his record of picking 800 wickets in the longer format won’t be surpassed by any bowler.
The next best off-spinners after Muralitharan in Test cricket are Australia’s Nathan Lyon (530 wickets) and India’s Ravichandran Ashwin (516 wickets).
“I am definitely worried about Test cricket. Every country will play maybe only six or seven Test matches. England and Australia might play the Ashes. But in some other countries, not many people are watching. There will be very little Test cricket.”
