Ravichandran Ashwin came to bat on his 100th Test match during the IND vs ENG 5th Test, hoping to add a few runs to his tally on his special day. However, the legendary spinner went back to the pavilion disappointed after Tom Hartley bowled him for a duck. Ashwin became the eighth player to be dismissed for a duck in their 100th Test.
Before Ashwin, Dilip Vengsarkar was the only Indian to be dismissed without scoring a single run in their 100th Test match. Allan Border, Courtney Walsh, and Alastair Cook are a few players who are also listed in this unique category.
