| The first step towards the CLT20 was to celebrate the achievements of Chennai Super Kings’ Tamil Icon Muralitharan. The setting was only a shade intimidating according to Murali Vijay as he recounted the ‘Murali Test’. The younger players at Super Kings have always taken the Mickey out of Murali.
