Ravichandran Aswin Reaches Milestone -100 Wickets in Test Matches Thursday Nov 14,2013


On Thursday Nov 14,2013,the first day of Sachin Tendulkar’s farewell Test against West Indies at the Wankhede Stadium, R Aswin ,the off-spinner dismissed left-handers Darren Bravo, Narsingh Deonarine and right-hander and skipper Darren Sammy and his 100 wickets have come from fewer Tests — only 18 — than any other Indian bowler.

Ravichandran Aswin came here(Wankhede Stadium) with 97 wickets from 17 Tests, and high on confidence on the back of a second Test century in the 1st Test Match against West Indies at Eden Gardens,Kolkata in Nov 06-08,2013

Ravichandran Aswin  became the 19th Indian bowler to reach 100 wickets in Tests. His distinction of achieving the 100 Test wickets in 18 Tests is an Indian record, eclipsing
 Erapalli Prasanna’s who got to the landmark in his 20th Test,against Australia in Delhi in 1969
 George Lohmann (England) holds a record, having taken only 16 Tests. Australia’s Charlie Turner & Clarrie Grimmet and England’s Sydney Barnes took 17 Tests each for their respective 100 wickets.
