Ashwin, 34, achieved the feat when he trapped Jofra Archer with바카라 웹사이트the second ball of 24th over in England's second innings of the third바카라 웹사이트Test at the refurbished Sardar Patel Stadium, which was renamed바카라 웹사이트Narendra Modi Stadium yesterday.
Minutes after Ashwin reached the landmark in his 77th match,바카라 웹사이트legendary Anil Kumble, who's India's leading wicket-taker in Test바카라 웹사이트cricket with 619 scalps, took to Twitter and hailed the feat as "phenomenal".
"Well done @ashwinravi99 on reaching 400 wickets .Phenomenal!바카라 웹사이트Congratulations on a fantastic achievement. Great going, keep it바카라 웹사이트up!" the former India captain wrote.
Sri Lankan wizard Muttiah Muralitharan is the fastest to reach the 400-wicket mark, in 72 matches. New Zealand's Richard Hadlee and South Africa's Dale Steyn are joint-third, reaching the landmark in바카라 웹사이트their respective 80th matches.
Sri Lanka's Rangana Herath (84) and Kumble (85) complete the top five.
Ashwin is also the fourth Indian bowler, after Kapil Dev (434),바카라 웹사이트Kumble and Harbhajan Singh (417), to enter the 400-wickets club.
Ashwin made his Test debut against the West Indies in November 2011 at Delhi, also winning the man of the match award. He is also the most prolific man of the series award winner for India. He has 29 five-wicket hauls in an innings, and 10-wicket hauls in a match.
