Ashwin also surpassed former India captain Anil Kumble as the leading wicket-taker for India in a four-Test series. Ashwin claimed his 28th wicket of Border-Gavaskar Trophy in 2012/13 at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi. The previous record of 27 had been achieved by Kumble against Australia too, during the 2004/05 edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
In 2013, Ashwin continued his good all-round form against West Indies in this Test. He has now hit a hundred and taken five wickets for the match against them in consecutive Tests. He had hit a hundred and taken nine wickets the last time India played against West Indies at Wankhede Stadium in 2011. Only four other India players have hit a hundred and taken five or more wickets for the match. Ashwin's the only one to do it twice.
