who is the better bowler? Murali or warne?

Warne is recognised as the better bowler, even though Murali has more wickets. Murali got most of his wickets against such teams as Bangladesh & Zimbabwe.

Warne was way better and always will be.

Murali always gets heaps of cheap wickets coz srilanka tend to play the not so good sides more often than the good ones. Murali doesnt have a great record against some of the better sides like Australia and South Africa. Warne played good against absoultely everyone not just sides like Bangladesh and Pakistan etc.

Muralia has played 25 tests against both Zimbabwe and Bangladesh whereas Warne only played three tests against these two minnows so I would say that the quality of all Warne's victims was higher. So Warnie for me though Murali is still a great bowler.

If I was a batmen I feel I would struggle the most against Warne. Totally agree that Murali is a chucker, I can't beleive he is allowed to continue with that disgraceful excuse of an action. His cricket stats should be wiped

Warne was a way better bowler. For Murali, just look up the word "chucker" in the dictionary.

Warne. His wickets came against better batsmen. Murali has 160 wickets against absolutely crap teams.

Murali

Murali might have played more matches against Zimbabwe and Bangladesh, but you have to consider other factors.

1) Zimbabwe used to be good at cricket. They even won test matches in India and Pakistan, which is no mean feat.

2) Most of Warne's matches were against England. Most of the English teams that Warne has played have been pathetic. They were as bad as New Zealand and Zimbabwe, until Kevin Pietersen came to the rescue. Look how long it took them to win back the Ashes.

3) Warne has never had to play against Australia, has he.

Murali is a better bowler. They're both equally good players. Warne's batting and fielding makes up for his bowling.

Every body knows that murali have more no of wickets tahn any other,

but look the bowling average, murali' average is way better than warne.
