On this day: Kapil Dev one wicket away from top

The Hindu  

It was on Martyr’s Day that Kapil Dev joined Sir Richard Hadlee on the all-time list of Test wicket-takers — with the magical figure of 431. Just as another New Zealander, Sir Edmund Hillary, who came through India, to conquer Mount Everest, Hadlee had come to India in 1988 in search of the Test bowling record. On the day Kapil Dev took his 400th Test wicket in the Perth Test of 1992, Indian cricketers had expressed the wish that both the world Test batting and bowling records should be with Indians for a while. The 35-year-old all-rounder from Chandigarh has appeared in 129 Tests since 1978 when he made his Test appearance in Pakistan and has played more Tests than anyone except Allan Border of Australia.
