Captain Rohit Sharma was wholesome in his praise for R. Ashwin, who became India’s second-highest wicket-taker in Tests, going past the legendary Kapil Dev’s 434.
“It’s a big thing in his cricketing career to achieve that feat.” Rohit said, after the match. “When you grow up wanting to play Tests, you don’t dream about such things. So, it’s a big achievement. I have been watching Ashwin for a long time. Every time I watch him, he seems to get better and better.”
