The Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia has been an exciting one with both teams tied at 1-1 with the final Test in Brisbane to begin on Friday.

Two of the bowlers who have been under spotlight from the start of the series have been India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and Australia spinner Nathan Lyon. The success of the two is closely related to the way their team goes on to perform.

Sri Lanka spin wizard Muttiah Muralitharan, who retired with 800 Test wickets, is one of the best spinners, the world has ever seen. The legend is the highest wicket-taker in Test cricket and believes that Ashwin has a chance to get close to his record because he is a ‘great bowler’ and says that he does not see Lyon getting there as ‘he is not good enough’.
