Sri Lanka [Images] off-spinner Muttiah Muralitharan [Images] equalled the world record for most one-day wickets on Tuesday by taking his tally to 502.

The 36-year-old, playing in his 327th match, drew level with retired Pakistan fast bowler Wasim Akram's landmark in the third one-day international against India.

Muralitharan, who also holds the world record for most Test wickets, had Yuvraj Singh [Images] caught to reach the mark.
