Veteran India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin scripted another record as he became the second bowler to breach the 100-wicket mark in India vs Australia Tests. With his dismissal of Alex Carey in the 2nd Test against Australia in Delhi, Ashwin reached 100 wickets against the Aussies, only behind legendary spinner Anil Kumble who has 111 wickets. For Australia, their spinner Nathan Lyon is the only one who is close to the magic 100-wicket mark with 95 wickets in his kitty against India.
His spin twin, Ravindra Jadeja, meanwhile, got to his own personal milestone when he sent back Usman Khawaja and scalped his 250th Test wicket. With this, Jadeja went past the likes of Kapil Dev, Richard Hadlee and Shaun Pollock.
Meanwhile, India will start Day 2 of the second Test with renewed vigour with skipper Rohit Sharma and under-fire KL Rahul looking to give the hosts a solid foundation to build on against a very game Australian side.
