India's most prominent player during the recently concluded first Test against Bangladesh was Ravichandran Ashwin. Currently ranked No. 1 in the ICC Test bowler rankings, 38-year-old spinner played a big role for India in ensuring the victory of 280 runs for the team in the opening game of the series. In return, Ashwin took six wickets for 88 runs and helped Bangladesh get bowled out for 234. His bowling was complemented by a knock of 113 runs off 133 balls, which made him India's top scorer in the first innings. Ashwin was awarded Player of the Match for his all-round performance in the Chennai Test. Ashwin, once again standing at the threshold of breaking more records, he would play his 102nd Test and his second at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur on Friday, September 27. Records that Ashwin can break in the second Test against Bangladesh: Ashwin has taken 29 wickets in seven Tests against Bangladesh. He now just needs three more wickets to surpass Zaheer Khan and become the leading wicket-taker in Tests between India and Bangladesh. Ashwin is now just one wicket away from doing what no Indian and just half a dozen bowlers in Test history have achieved so far-that is, take 100 wickets in the fourth innings. That would make him just like Shane Warne (138), Nathan Lyon (119), Rangana Herath (115), Muttiah Muralitharan (106), and Glenn McGrath (103). Ashwin has taken 48 wickets in nine matches in this WTC Cycle. He is only four wickets away from Australia's Josh Hazlewood and is on his way to become the leading wicket-taker of this cycle. If Ashwin takes a five-wicket haul in the second Test, he will break Shane Warne's record of 37 five-wicket hauls and move to the number two spot for most five-wicket hauls in Tests. The first position is at present held by Muttiah Muralitharan with 67. Ashwin has to take eight wickets in the second Test to surpass the record of Nathan Lyon to become the top wicket-taker in World Test Championship history. Ashwin already has 522 wickets from 101 Test matches played to date. If he gets nine wickets in the Kanpur Test, he would surpass Nathan Lyon's record of 530 wickets and become the seventh-highest wicket-taker in the history of Test cricket.
