The pair of star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin have together won many matches for Team India. In India, facing this pair is considered to be the most difficult. Big batsmen fail with the spinning balls of these two players. But this time the Jadeja-Ashwin pair has done wonders with the bat. This pair has broken this special record of the great Sachin Tendulkar in the first match of the Test series against Bangladesh. This record was in the name of Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan for 20 years.

Jadeja-Ashwin pair made a special record

In this match being played at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, Team India had a very bad start.

After losing the toss and batting first, the team lost the first 6 wickets for 144 runs. In such a situation, it seemed difficult for Team India to reach even 250 runs. But after the initial setbacks, the pair of Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin took charge of the team and made a memorable partnership. There has been a partnership of more than 150 runs for 7 wickets between the two players, with this they have moved to the top of a list.

This happened for the first time against Bangladesh

The pair of Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin have now become the pair to make the highest partnership for the seventh wicket or below from India against Bangladesh.

Earlier this record was in the name of Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan. Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan had added 133 runs for the 10th wicket during the Dhaka Test in 2004. But now Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin have gone ahead in this list. That is, Jadeja and Ashwin have broken the 20-year-old record of Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan. At the same time, this is also the first time against Bangladesh when an Indian player has made a partnership of more than 150 runs for the seventh wicket or below.
