Mendis can have more variations than Murali but the old master will remain one of a kind.
Murali's second innings victims
Overs 6.4
BatsmanVirender Sehwag
Mode of dismissal The ball pitched on the leg stump and straightened as Sehwag shouldered arms. The ball brushed the front pad and hit the back pad. Umpire Mark Benson ruled not out but Jayawardene successfully appealed
Overs 23.4
Batsman sachin tendulkar
Mode of dismissal Another successful review for Sri Lanka. A doosra down the leg side, Tendulkar plays the paddle sweep, ball hits the pad, then deflects to the leading edge of the bat and balloons towards leg slip
Overs 29.5
Batsman gautam gambhir
Mode of dismissal Flighted delivery around the off stump, Gambhir leans out to play the shot over covers with the turn. Gambhir is beaten by flight and the big turn and is stumped
Overs 33.5
Batsman sourav ganguly
Mode of dismissal A quicker, flatter off-break that turns big on Ganguly from leg to off and batsman edges it to second slip where Dilshan takes a fine catch.
Overs 35.5
Batsman dinesh karthik
Mode of dismissal Yet another doosra that forces Karthik to shuffle on the backfoot and open up. The ball catches the outside edge and Jayawardene at first slip takes a sharp catch to his left
Overs 41.3
Batsman anil kumble
Mode of dismissal A quick off-break, pitched short and Kumble tries to play the square-cut but doesn't get the space and only manages to drag it back to the stumps
