Reaching the record for most wickets taken by an Indian team in Test cricket, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja accomplished a historic milestone.

On Day 1 of India’s first Test against England in Hyderabad, the spin twins Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja reached a historic milestone. With the first three wickets for India on the day, Ashwin and Jadeja surpassed the famed spin duo of Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh in terms of most wickets for India as a pair. As England fell three wickets behind, Ashwin and Jadeja combined for 503 scalps. Kumble and Harbhajan, on the other hand, have a combined Test wicket total of 501 for India.

The third combination on the list after Kumble and Harbhajan is Bhajji and Zaheer Khan. The spin-pace pair has taken 474 wickets for India.

Following his dismissal of Duckett in the match’s 12th over on Day 1, Ravichandran Ashwin produced the game’s first breakthrough.
Taking Ollie Pope (1 run from 11 balls) out of the game in the fifteenth over was Ravindra Jadeja’s second wicket. Pope had not improved England’s position or left his impact on the game.Ashwin removed the English opener, Crawley, shortly before the third wicket fell in the sixteenth over.Joe Root (18) and Jonny Bairstow (32) were at the crease as England were at 108/3 at the midday break.Ben Stokes’ choice to bat first after winning the toss paid off as the visitors in Hyderabad reached 100 runs in the 26th over.

England’s openers, Zak Crawley (20 runs from 40 balls) and Ben Duckett (35 runs from 39 balls), got the visitors off to a good start with a 55-run partnership. Crawley hit three fours. Meanwhile, Duckett hit seven fours.
