Another crushing win for India. To start favourites is one thing, to treat the opposition like that quite another. Delighted for Umesh Yadav.

Extremely top effort from Umesh Yadav to take a ten-fer in a test at home. The fact that among fast bowlers only the greats Kapil Dev and Srinath have done it at home shows how rare a feat this is #INDvWI

Another clinical performance by India to win the series. Umesh Yadav’s performance in this test was very pleasing and am looking forward to Prithvi Shaw and Rishabh Pant winning matches for India in all conditions. #IndvWI

Umesh Yadav is first India fast bowler to take 10 wickets in a home Test in nearly two decades (since Javagal Srinath vs Pak, Kolkata, 1999). #IndvWI

Umesh Yadav is the only 3rd Indian pace bowler to take 10 wickets or more in a Test Match in India. The other two are Kapil Dev (Twice), and J Srinath. The last time it happened was in 1999.— Sanjay Dixit ಸಂಜಯ್ ದೀಕ್ಷಿತ್ संजय दीक्षित (@Sanjay_Dixit) October 14, 2018
