Australian skipper Pat Cummins reached another high in his career, as he overtook legendary Garfield Sobers (West Indies) and Daniel Vettori (New Zealand) to become the player with third-highest wickets as a captain

Cummins made this movement upward in the charts during the third Test against India at Brisbane

During India's first innings, Cummins was absolutely relentless with his bowling, banging the cherry on the deck mercilessly

The result was that he got wickets of the entire Indian middle-order, Rishabh Pant, skipper Rohit Sharma, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Ravindra Jadeja

Now, Cummins has 119 wickets as a Test captain, as per stats from live Cricbuzz commentary. Above him are, Australia's Richie Benaud (138 scalps) and Pakistan all-rounder Imran Khan (187 wickets)
