Ravichandran Ashwin Goes Past Muttiah Muralitharan's Record Against Left-Handers

By IANS News December 30, 2020 • 21:58 PM View: 866

Ravichandran Ashwin has surpassed Sri Lanka spin legend Muttiah Muralitharan's record of most wickets against left-handed batsmen in Test cricket. Ashwin ended the Australian innings on the fourth day of the second Test with the wicket of Josh Hazlewood, who became the 192nd left-hander to fall to the Indian spinner.

With 191 wickets, Muralitharan was the most successful bowler against left-handers before the Boxing Day Test, followed by England's veteran fast bowler James Anderson (186), Australia legends Glenn McGrath (172) and Shane Warne (172), and former India captain Anil Kumble (167).
