Secretary TNCA RI Palani: Star off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has thanked his family, friends, coaches, and administrators of Tamil Nadu as he became the second Indian bowler to claim 500 wickets in Test cricket.

Ashwin dismissed England's Zak Crawley in the third Test as his 500th wicket in his 98th match, becoming the ninth bowler to join this club. He is the third off-spinner to do so after Muthiah Muralitharan and Nathan Lyon.

On Sunday, Ashwin took to social media to thank people who have played an important role in helping him reach this milestone.
