CricTrivia

Muttiah Muralitharan recently retired from international cricket having bagged 59 ducks all told. Has anyone made more? 


  • Muttiah Muralitharan's haul of 59 ducks in all forms of international cricket - 33 in Tests, 25 in ODIs and one in a Twenty20 international - is indeed a record. 
  • Courtney Walsh, the leader in Tests alone with 43 zeroes, had 11 in one-day internationals as well, to make a combined total of 54. 
  • The name of the only other man with more than 50 international ducks is something of a surprise: Sanath Jayasuriya bagged 15 in Tests, 34 in ODIs and four in Twenty20 internationals. 
  • Glenn McGrath retired with 49 international ducks to his name.
