India's experienced spinner Ravichandran Ashwin achieved a major achievement during the fourth Test match against England. Ashwin trapped Jonny Bairstow LBW in England's first innings on Friday (February 23) in Ranchi. With this wicket he created history. Ashwin took his 100th wicket against England in Tests. He became the first bowler from India to do so.

 

 

England captain Ben Stokes won the toss and decided to bat first. Debuting fast bowler Akash Deep gave the first three blows to the English team by dismissing Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, and Jack Crowley. After that Ashwin dismissed Bairstow. He became the second bowler to take 100 wickets in Test matches between India and England. Before him, the experienced fast bowler of the English team, James Anderson, had achieved this feat.
