Ravichandran Ashwin, who scored a century in the first innings, took six wickets in the second innings as India thumped Bangladesh by 280 runs in the first Test in Chennai on Sunday.

However, local hero Ashwin struck first to end a stubborn overnight stand of 48 by getting Shakib out for 25. The dismissal sparked a batting collapse in the morning session as Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja shared nine wickets between them.

'Still Playing In Shane Warne's Shadow': Nathan Lyon's Massive Praise For Late Australian Great

Australia spinner Nathan Lyon has accepted to live with the fact of being constantly compared to legendary bowler Shane Warne throughout his career.

The greatest leg-spinner of all-time, who passed away at the age of 52 in 2022, had retired from international cricket in 2007 with a massive tally of 708 Test wickets.

Watch: Sri Lanka Spinner Prabath Jayasuriya Sparks Shane Warne's 'Ball Of The Century' Memory With Stunner

Sri Lanka cricket team spinner Prabath Jayasuriya almost recreated Shane Warne's famous 'Ball of the Century' to dismiss Harry Brook on Day 2 of the first Test match against England on Thursday. Jayasuriya came up with an absolute stunner that left Brook completely stunned and sparked comparisons with Warne's magical delivery back in 1993. The ball pitched around the middle and leg stump line before turning sharply to crash into the off-stump. Brook was batting at 56 and looked in quite a good touch but the ball completely bamboozled the England batter. The video of the dismissal went viral on social media with both fans and experts showering praise on the Sri Lanka cricketer.

Ravi Shastri Hails Jasprit Bumrah, Compares Him To Prime Wasim Akram

Former India head coach Ravi Shastri stopped just short of calling Jasprit Bumrah a magician with the ball and said the pacer's standout moments in the T20 World Cup in the Americas were India managing to thwart Pakistan's charge in the group stage and Rohit Sharma's side pulling the rabbit out of the hat in the final against South Africa. India managed to defend a paltry 119 in their Group A clash against the arch-rivals, winning the contest by six runs with Bumrah changing the momentum of the game by getting rid of the dangerous Mohammad Rizwan to send Pakistan into a free fall when they were chugging along nicely at 80/3.
