Player of the Match : Kuldeep Yadav: 

Warne, Muralitharan,  Kumble  ✅ Ashwin

36th five-wicket haul for Ashwin and he joins an elite group of bowlers to claim a 5-fer in their 100th Test!

By Lunch: R Ashwin sents back  4 off  top 6  , England struggling in second innings : 103/5 at lunch.

Sachin on Jimmy Anderson: 

The first time I saw Anderson play was in Australia in 2002, and his control over the ball looked special. 

Nasser Hussain spoke very highly of him back then and today, I am sure, he would say, “Maine bola tha” — that he had called it so early. 😀

700 test wickets is a stellar achievement. A fast bowler playing for 22 years and performing so consistently to be able to take 700 wickets would have sounded like fiction until Anderson actually made it happen. Simply magnificent!

- Sachin Tendulkar 

The number of times James Anderson has dismissed India's stars across generations 🫡

700 wickets in Test cricket.

James Anderson becomes the third bowler to achieve the historic milestone 🔥
