India vs Australia: Umesh Yadav Equals Virat Kohli's Batting Record, Surpasses Ravi Shastri

It was a disappointing display from the India batsmen on Day 1 of the third Test match against Australia in Indore as the hosts were bundled out for just 109. Almost all the batsmen failed to get going against the Aussie spinners but Umesh Yadav ended up adding a massive milestone to his name. The fast bowler slammed two massive sixes off Matthew Kuhnemann's bowling and equalled Virat Kohli's tally of 24 maximums in Test cricket. In the course of the match, he also went past former head coach Ravi Shastri's tally of 22 and is currently 17th in the list of Indian cricketers with most Test sixes. Overall, Virender Sehwag tops the list with 91 while MS Dhoni is second with 78.
