India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on Thursday joined an elite list of cricketers as he picked up his 400th wicket in the ongoing Pink-ball Test in Ahmedabad at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

England's Jofra Archer became Ashwin's 400th victim in Test cricket. He is the 4th Indian and the quickest from this country to enter the 400 club after Anil Kumble (619), Kapil Dev (434) and Harbhajan Singh (417).

Ashwin was 6 wickets short of the landmark before the third Test against England. He bagged 3 wickets in the first innings and then sent back Ben Stokes, Ollie Pope and Archer in the second session on Day 2 to achieve the feat at Motera.
