Indeed its a big achievement for an Indian....
Anil has reached 500 wickets at an impressiive strike rate of almost 5 wickets per match which is equvalent to a century for a batsman
Often a bowler's performance goes unnoticed as cricket is basically a batsman oriented sport....
but Anil's achievement is appreciable .....
A very intelligent bowler....
Despite the criticism heaped on him like... .he is not a spinner etc etc, he went on in relentless pursuit of targetting his wickets....
and has succeeded
Hats off
