Question

How many wickets had Muralitharan got when India toured Sri Lanka Last time?

Answer 1

India last toured Sri Lanka in 2001 and played 3 test matches.

Muralitharan took 23 wickets in that series(8 wickets in first test, 4 wickets in 2nd test and 11 wickets in 3rd test)

Sri Lanka won the series 2-1 (Won 1st and 3rd test and lost 2nd test)

Answer 2

India played in Sri Lanka last in the 2001-02 series. Murali played all the three matches. His performance was the best. He bowled 1,065 balls, conceded 444 runs and captured 23 wickets.

In the latest seies in Sri Lanka against England (2007-08 series), it was again Murali who performed the best in bowling. He played all the three matches, bowled 1,124 balls, conceded 419 runs and took 19 wickets.

This time, Murali has an able team mate Ajantha to play havoc. Together, they will finish off Indian batting. Together, they will take 14 wickets per match.
