Sri Lanka Cricket Downfall - Lankan Legend Muralitharan Breaks Down Reasons

[@bsagnik247]

*Being an Indian..Muttiah Muralitharan, Sanath Jayasuriya, Lasith Malinga, Kumar Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene and Tillakaratne Dilshan are my all time favorite Sri Lankan cricketers..what an era that was when Sri Lanka used to be World Cup finalists*

[@diprajeetdebbarma]

Upul Tharanga, Vaas, Mendis, Atapattu.. Can't forget them

[@rameshsitaraman2784]

Also Aravinda desilva😊

[@vw8220]

Arvinda de silva, kaluvitarana, upul chandana,angelo mathews, dilhara fernando, Russel Arnold, Maharoof..these were also a good bunch

[@KoushikLifestyle67]

Thilan Samaraweera, Chamara Kapugedera

[@Semplekeith]

No vaas?

[@11Khalid11]

The reason people love the Sri Lankan team of that era is because they were such gentlemen and played with passion and fairness.

[@hlaks1207]

Sri Lankan cricketers shared their common emotions with every daily common man that goes through life. In prison, hospitals, cemeteries, banks etc all had their ears to the radio. We played cricket with grace humble politness respect so Indian fans loved us every Indian girl loved every Sri Lanka cricketer. No Indian fan knew why we kept Sachin Tendulkar on the wicket without getting him out and kept him on strike putting him under pressure. We knew he loves hundreds and most times we won the match because he was man of the match. It was always bitter for him and his fans.😂😂😂❤😊

Gentlemen....wait what are you talking? --Kohli

[@jayk6727]

What gentlemen lmao. Like how sanga loser told his team mate to get out cause he dint want an indian player to get a 100 lol. Stat padder is what he was. Sanga

[@arpanmondal314]

Murali, just not a remarkable bowler but also the depth of maturity shows in every single words he uttered mostly in difficult kind of questions to be dealt with. Such an incredible person overall...

[@sahasransusbarik]

But he is worse in historical facts.

[@neelbhatt5775]

Most honest and direct on face, The reason why he is so successful cricketer and people still respect him so much as earlier❤

[@AxeDharme]

Not just Sangakkara, Jayawardene, Malinga and Dilshan but also the 90s SL team of Aravinda de Silva, Arjuna Ranatunga, Asanka Gurusinghe, Roshan Mahanama, Hashan Tillekratne, Sanath Jayasuriya, Upul Chandana all were big favourites for Indians.

[@narenb123]

Like Tourism... Cricket is very important for Sri Lanka economically...If your team is playing good cricket top teams will invite you to play with them.. As an Indian i would support Sri Lanka in match against Aus or Eng... In that way you have more viewers and more revenue.. Apart from that Sri Lankan cricket used to be very competitive and fierce...I hope golden days for Sri Lanka resurrect again

[@DiracRestricted]

It's true that current Sri Lanka team is behind Aus, Ind ,England and past Sri Lankan legends team. But still SL is ahead of lower teams and they can give a fight agaisnt PAK or SA. So this is relative downfall and not complete destruction like WI.

You know when I hear this man speak for some reason I feel he just cannot scold or scream at someone... just hear him talk ... so soft-spoken and composed with that beautiful smile.. one feels like chatting with that one nice uncle who has so many interesting tales to tell... Murali sir you're awesome

[@hlaks1207]

You are wrong...when Kaluwitharana dropped a catch or anyone off Murali bowling. Murali gives a staredown at the culprit. Then when he is within 30m fielding he would leathered the throw back to Kalu or someone that persons palm would be seared in hot redness. They would feel equal amount of pain of what Murali felt for dropping the catch. When they knew Murali was angry they were extra cautionary careful to receive the throw.😅😅😅. It happened to Kalu s early career. Then Kalu became Muralis trusted adviser. Such was Sri Lanka cricket greatness mutual humble respect for each other.

Murali totally jumbled up history here. It wasnt Ashokas son Vijaya that colonised SL. Vijaya lived about 400+ years before Ashoka in modern day western bengal coast. He is who established Sinhalese civilisation in SL ~2900 years ago. And Sinhalese is a direct descendant of Magadhi prakrit from that time as evidence from 600BC pottery inscriptions in Brahmi. Ashoka's son Mahindra and daughter Sanghamitra is who brough buddhism to Sri Lanka. Murali is a cricketer not a historian.

Murali sir, India loves sri lanka a lot. I know in politics when it comes to srilanka and China relations and cricket. You may hear and see a little bit of annoying comments from India side. It's like why my brother is taking help from china. But generally India is always behind Sri Lanka. India supports Sri Lanka. But you have to understand in today's times, India has to upgrade its attacking power to safe guard its nation and surrounding nation. Please respect us not because India can attack Sri Lanka like you said. But respect us because we carry the same civilization. We were part of the oldest civilization. I'm also happy to see all of your big cricket players restaurants in Mumbai. The food and interior work is superb.. I would like to see many more srilankans to come on future Podcasts.😊

1:45 Spreading Buddhism in Sri Lanka and Invading few parts of Sri Lanka by Cholas and Pandyas does not imply that Sri Lanka was ever a part of India.Sri Lankan kings, including Parakramabahu I, have also invaded parts of India. Does that imply that India was a part of Sri Lanka? The only country that was able to fully colonize Sri Lanka was Great Britain, not India. It is a shame that such a popular figure as Murali, who holds a special place in the hearts of the people in Sri Lanka, makes inaccurate historical claims about the country without proper historical knowledge.

King Ashokas son was a Buddhist Arahath Monk Mihindu, who brought Buddhism to Sri Lanka. Vijaya is the first person to colonized Sri Lanka from India.

[@funnytimes3725]

SL had a civilization even before King Vijaya established himself in SL. It is called the "Hela civilization" which dates back to 5000 years ago. King Ravana is the founder of this civilization. Real history of SL is hidden from the entire world due to some reason. Since the truth cannot be hidden like moon and sun, real truth will emerge sooner. Seems like great Murali has some issues with SL history.
