Murali to retire in 2007

Muttiah MuralitharanBBC SPORT | Cricket: "Muttiah Muralitharan has told Sri Lankan media he will retire after the 2007 World Cup in the Caribbean. The controversial off-spinner last week broke Courtney Walsh's wicket-taking record, moving his Test tally to 521 against Zimbabwe in Harare. He has been told by Sri Lanka Cricket not to bowl his illegal doosra ball. It has been suggested 1,000 career Test wickets could be in his grasp at his current strike-rate of six wickets per match."
