He crossed Kapil Dev's highest set scores of 63 wickets in 13 Tests created way back in the 1979-80 season making us proud last Friday. As an Indian he has the highest number of wickets in home Test season now. He dismissed overnight batsman Mitchell Starc with the fifth ball of the first over to end the visitors' first innings at 260. Ashwin had grabbed 61 wickets in 10 Tests in the 2012-13 home season while this season the off-spinner has taken 27 wickets in three Test matches against New Zealand, 28 in five against England and six in one against Bangladesh.Ashwin was included in the Indian squad for the 2011 World Cup and has been consistent in the opportunities that he gets.
