Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has surpassed Sri Lankan legend Muttiah Muralitharan when it comes to sending off the left-handers in Test cricket.
Earlier Muralitharan was the most successful bowler against left-handers but now it’s Ravichandran Ashwin who took the record from the Sri Lankan legend.
Muralitharan has picked 191 wickets of left-handers in his career while Ashwin is now at the top spot with 192 wickets and Muralitharan is second now 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).
Ashwin has been brilliant with the bowl in both the matches last match he picked 5 wickets in both innings in total.
