In an exclusive to the Republic Media Network, Muralitharan praised India\u2019s performance in the Australia vs India Test match.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI would say it is a great victory because despite the absence of senior players in the match, the young players performed very well and that is something special,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Spin legend Muralitharan represented Sri Lanka from 1992 to 2011. He holds the record of highest wicket-taker in Test cricket with 800 wickets under his belt.
