Kapil Dev is India's third highest wicket-taker in Test cricket.[1]

one of their Cricketers of the Year in 1983 and Indian Cricketer of the Century in 2002.[6][7] Eight years later, the International Cricket Council (ICC) inducted him into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.[8] As of 2012, Kapil Dev also holds the record for being the only player to have taken more than 400 wickets and scored over 5,000 runs in Tests.[9][10][11][N 2]

Kapil Dev made his Test and ODI debuts against

Australia, with seven five-wicket hauls against each of them.[12] He took his only five-wicket haul in ODIs against Australia during the 1983 Cricket World Cup.[12]

After playing for nearly 16 years, Kapil Dev retired from international cricket in 1994.[13] At the time of his retirement, he held the world record for the most wickets taken in Test and ODI cricket; both records were subsequently broken by Courtney Walsh and Wasim Akram respectively.[13][14][15] His combined tally of 24 five-wicket hauls is eleventh in the all-time list in 2012, a record jointly held with Sydney Barnes, Imran Khan and Dennis Lillee.[4][N 1]
