The 38-year-old went into the final day of his last Test needing two more wickets to become the first player to reach 800 victims.And although he removed Harbhajan Singh to edge closer to his target, Muralitharan was forced to toil away before finally clinching the last wicket.

With Lasith Malinga moving to five wickets in the innings, VVS Laxman having been run out and the light looking like it might come into play, Murali finally struck to remove the last Indian wicket in the second innings.Pragyan Ojha, who had remained stubbornly at the crease for 49 balls, became victim No.800 when he edged to Mahela Jayawardene at slip.

The wicket sparked wild celebrations with Murali,holding the ball aloft, carried off the ground by his Sri Lankan team-mates as fireworks went off.

Muralitharan's records:
- Most wickets in Tests: 800 (Next best, Shane Warne: 708)
- Most five-wicket hauls (in an innings) in Tests: 67 (Next best, Warne: 37)
- Most 10-wicket hauls (in a match) in Tests: 22 (Next best, Warne: 10)
- Most wickets taken bowled in Tests: 167 (Next best, Warne: 116)
- Most wickets taken caught in Tests: 435 (Next best, Warne: 418)
- Most wickets taken caught and bowled in Tests: 35 (Joint with Anil Kumble)
- Most wickets taken stumped in Tests: 47 (Next best, Warne: 36)
- Most balls bowled in Tests: 44,039 (Next most, Kumble: 40,850)
- Ten wickets in a match in most consecutive Tests: Four (twice; Next best, Clarrie Grimmett: three)

She tells UsMagazine.com, "It's going to be years! I'm going to be 44 when I get married!"

About this Author
Beth Harbison grew up in Potomac, Maryland, in the shadow of Washington, D.C. Apart from the occasional irritation at being held up in traffic by a presidential motorcade, she has remained fairly uninvolved in the politics that define her home town.

Instead, she shopped.

And she has the credit card bills to prove it.

Shoe Addicts Anonymous, in 2007, was her first mainstream novel after writing four cookbooks and twenty-two Silhouette Romances.

Currently, she lives in Maryland with her husband, two children and three dogs, and enjoys playing Scrabulous and watching terrible reality TV shows.
