If Yasir Shah takes two more wickets in his ongoing 33rd Test match or even in his 34th and 35th Tests, he will break the record of Australia’s Clarrie Grimmett who reached that landmark in his 36th Tests 82 years ago.

Clarrie Grimmett did that against South Africa at Johannesburg on February 15, 1936.
