Muttiah Muralitharan bagged his 793rd wicket by snaring Sachin Tendulkar today in the 3rd day of the first Test match against India at Galle. The spin wizzard also batted briefly before Sri Lanka declared at 520 for 8 and was greeted by cheering spectators and Indian fielders who gave him a guard of honour. - Cricinfo
