special things

  • Ashwin's fear in Kangaroos even before the series

  • Big record awaits Ashwin

  • Four test series starts from February 9

New Delhi:

The Test series to be played between Australia and India is going to start on February 9, but before that it has become clear that Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has become a big terror for the visiting team.

This can be clearly understood from the Kangaroo team's practice for the last few days in front of "duplicate Ashwin (Mahesh Pithia)" and the statements of its players.

These methods of the Kangaroo team have made Ashwin a topic of discussion among the fans and pundits even before the start of the series, while the fans of Ashwin and this off-spinner are also eyeing a big achievement.

In fact, Ashwin is just a few steps away from becoming the second highest wicket-taker in the history of the Gavaskar-Border Trophy.

Although the history of cricket between the two countries is very old, but the Gavaskar-Border Trophy started in the year 1996.

And since then till now a lot of cricket and many series have been organized. 

The record of taking the most wickets in the Gavaskar-Border Trophy is in the name of India's veteran Anil Kumble, who has taken the maximum 111 wickets in 20 Tests, while Harbhajan has 95 wickets in 35 Tests and Nathan Lyon in 22 Tests. There are 94 wickets.

There is no doubt that both Lion and Ashwin will chase the century of wickets in the starting series.

Talking about Ashwin, he has taken 89 wickets in 18 Tests in the Gavaskar-Border Trophy.

Meaning he needs 11 wickets to score a century.

And it is expected that he will get the need in the four-Test series that is going to start.
