In 2011, Ashwin claimed the wicket of Shivnarine Chanderpaul on the third day of the 1st Test in New Delhi.

Tagenarine was clean bowled for 12 runs from a nicely tossed up delivery that drifted in to beat the outside edge. His father, Shivnarine, was trapped LBW for 47 runs.

Ashwin, who claimed his 475th wicket, also claimed the highest bowled dismissal in Tests for an Indian, going past Anil Kumble.
