Murali tops world bowling ratings
[January 9, 2002 - 11.00 GMT]

Off spinner Muttiah Muralitharan’s 13-wicket haul in the second Test against Zimbabwe put him on top of the world bowling ratings for the first time on Monday.

Murali, who replaces Australia’s Glenn McGrath at number one, also currently tops the one-day ratings.

"The 500-wicket mark is in my mind but right now I am focusing on reaching 400 Test wickets - that's the first milestone”, 29-year old Murali said. 

He has taken 391 wickets in 71 Test matches.
