When Harbhajan rocked the cricket world with his superb bowling in the 2001 series against Australia, Ashwin was still a hitter. Harbhajan’s magic in that series changed the mindset of his career.

Harbhajan finished his test run with 418 wickets, compared to 265 at home. By the end of the first innings of India’s ongoing Chennai Test against England, Ashwin had 391 proving grounds. With 5 plots in this entry, Ashwin took 26 plots in the country.

At the endgame press conference on the second day, when it came to Harbhajan’s departure, Ashwin returned 20 years ago.

“When I started watching the 2001 Australian series, where Bhaju Pa (Harbhajan) was playing, I had no idea that he would play for the country as a spinner. He was still a state team hitter, trying to build a career in batting and play for the country. I didn’t know if I could ever play for India. “

“A lot of peers that age, that generation used to make fun of me because I used to bowling in action like Bhaju Pa, bowling like him and trying to do everything. To get out of there and beat his record today is incredibly special . I didn’t know the record. It’s great to know now.

In India, Harbhajan has taken 265 plots in 55 tests. Ashwin passed all 10 tests after playing less.

Only Anil Kumble is at the top of these two in the national field of India. This leg-turning legend has 350 victims in 63 tests.
