India vs England 1st Test Match Hyderabad
As the Test series against England began, the magic of the Indian team's spinners was also on display with the visiting team being reduced to a score of 246 runs on the first day of the Hyderabad Test match. While Ashwin and Jadeja took 3-3 wickets, Jasprit Bumrah and Akshar Patel took 2-2 wickets. After the end of the first day of play, Ravindra Jadeja made another big claim and expressed hope that Ashwin can complete his tally of 500 Test wickets in this Test match.
Ashwin still has a chance to pick up more wickets in the second innings
On the first day of the Hyderabad Test match, the pair of Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin did a great job and also set the record of taking most wickets as a pair in Test cricket for India. Previously, this record was held by the pair Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh, who took 501 wickets. With Ashwin taking three wickets in the first innings, he is now just seven steps away from the 500 Test wicket mark. Speaking to Geo Cinema about this achievement, Ravindra Jadeja said that if Ashwin completes 500 Test wickets, it would be a big achievement. I hope he makes it in this game. I need 22 more wickets to complete 300 wickets and it might take the entire series to complete it but I hope Ashwin will complete his 500 wickets in this game itself.
I like bowling with Ashwin
Ravindra Jadeja further said in his statement that Jadeja said that I like bowling with Ashwin and that it really helps when two spinners bowl together. We talk a lot together about field positioning, correct line and length and are happy to contribute to the team's victory. We enjoy this competition. Let us tell you that at the end of the first day of the Hyderabad Test match, the Indian team had scored 119 runs for a loss of 1 wicket.
