Ravichandran Ashwin becomes the first Indian bowler to claim 100 Test wickets against England, achieving the milestone during the fourth Test in Ranchi.
Ashwin dismissed Jonny Bairstow to reach the landmark, with a full-length delivery that led to a successful DRS decision overturning the initial not-out call.
Additionally, Ashwin joins Ian Botham as the second fastest cricketer to achieve the double of 1000 runs and 100 wickets against any opposition, achieving the feat in just 23 Tests against England.
