Ravichandran Ashwin on Thursday became only the fourth Indian and the sixth spinner in the world to take 400 Test wickets, a feat which was nothing short of a "fairytale" for the seasoned pro who was called a "modern-day legend" by skipper Virat Kohli.
Ashwin reached the landmark in the day-night third Test against England here when he dismissed Jofra Archer in England`s second innings. He ended the match with seven scalps, which took his overall tally to 401.
