AUS vs IND third Test Day 3: Ravichandran Ashwin goes previous Muralitharan, Warne for unbelievable file

1 min read

Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin registered an unbelievable feat, as he’s now the very best wicket-taker towards the left-handers within the historical past of Test cricket. Ashwin has dismissed left-handed batsmen on 193 events thus far.
He is above the likes of Muttiah Muralitharan (191 wickets), England’s James Anderson (183 wickets), and Australia duo Shane Warne and Glenn McGrath (each ended with 172 wickets).

He dismissed left-hander David Warner within the second innings of the continuing third Test in Sydney. With this wicket, he has now dismissed Warner on 10 events within the longest format of the sport – essentially the most he has dismissed any batsman.

Overall, he now trails solely England’s Stuart Broad for many dismissals of Warner in Test cricket.
Earlier within the Sydney Test, Australia scored 338 within the first innings earlier than proscribing India on 244. While Smith scored a century (131) for the hosts, Shubman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara top-scored for India in first innings (50).
Australia took a first-innings lead of 94 runs and it could be an uphill activity for India to make a comeback on this match.
Pujara’s (50 off 176 balls) ultra-defensive strategy put great strain on his colleagues and India by no means fairly acquired the momentum going as Cummins (4/29 in 21.4 overs), Hazlewood (2/43 in 21 overs) and Mitchell Starc (1/61 in 19 overs) constantly attacked the batsmen — first with a leg-side discipline and short-ball technique after which on the hall of uncertainty.
