Ashwin broke the records of many legends with a century, equaled Dhoni, and left behind Yuvraj and Rahul Dravid.

India's veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin scored a brilliant century on the first day of the Chennai Test. By the end of the first day's play, he returned unbeaten on 102 runs. With this century, he not only rescued Team India from a difficult situation but also broke many records. He equaled the number of centuries scored by former Indian team captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni in Tests. He also left behind Ravi Shastri, Rahul Dravid, and Yuvraj Singh in terms of hitting sixes in Tests. Not only this but in the current Pakistan cricket team, only Babar Azam is ahead of him in terms of Test centuries.

Ashwin came ahead of many giants.

When Ashwin came to bat on the first day of the Test match against Bangladesh, 6 batsmen of Team India were out. Rohit, Virat, Shubman, Pant, Jaiswal, and Rahul's wickets fell at a score of just 144. In this difficult situation, batting at number 8, he scored the sixth century of his Test career. With this, he has equaled Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi and MS Dhoni in Tests. Both had scored 6 centuries each in their Test career.

Ashwin hit 10 fours and 2 sixes in his 102-run innings on the first day. He now has a total of 23 sixes in his name in Tests. With this, he has left behind India's legendary batsmen Yuvraj Singh and Rahul Dravid in hitting sixes in Tests. Ashwin has also gone ahead of Ravi Shastri and Cheteshwar Pujara in hitting sixes in Tests. Yuvraj has hit 22 sixes in his Test career, Dravid 21, Ravi Shastri 22, and Pujara 16 sixes.

These records also remained in the name of Ashwin.

Ravichandran Ashwin is the first all-rounder in the world to have 6 centuries and more than 500 wickets in Test cricket. Not only this, he has become the second batsman to score the most centuries while batting at number 8 or below. Ahead of him is only New Zealand all-rounder Daniel Vettori with 5 centuries, while Ashwin has scored 4 centuries at this position.

When Team India had lost 6 wickets for 144 runs, Ashwin shared a 199-run partnership with Ravindra Jadeja on the Chennai ground. This is the biggest partnership for the 7th wicket at Chennai's Chepauk. Apart from this, Ashwin has become the first cricketer in the world to score more than 50 runs 20 times and also take 5 wickets in an innings more than 30 times.
