Who is the most successful Indian left arm spinner bowler in Test Cricket as of 2023?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Ravindra Jadeja
Ravindra Jadeja bowls left-arm orthodox spin. In June 2023, during the World Test Championship final against Australia, he went past Bishan Singh Bedi’s 266 Test wickets, the earlier record for an Indian left-arm spinner, and so became India’s most successful left-arm spinner in Test cricket.
The other three are not left-arm spinners: R. Ashwin is a right-arm off-spinner, while Anil Kumble and Yuzvendra Chahal are right-arm leg-spinners.
