In fact, Ashwin equaled Yasir Shah’s record as soon as he dismissed Steve Smith. In Test cricket, Ashwin dismissed Steve Smith for a duck for the 7th time.

Yasir Shah has also dismissed Steve Smith 7 times. At the same time, Stuart Broad has dismissed Smith for zero 9 times, while James Anderson has made Smith his victim 8 times.

Changed strategy during bowling :-

It should be noted that R Ashwin bowled in Delhi Test while changing the strategy. Got wickets while bowling from round the wicket. Ashwin changed the strategy and got Labushen out LBW from round the wicket.

After this, Ashwin got Smith out on zero on the next ball. Smith tried to stop the ball going outside Ashwin’s off stump but, the ball hit the bat and went into the gloves of wicketkeeper Shrikar Bharat.
