Ahmedabad, Feb 22 Team India fast bowler Ishant Sharma is about to play his 100th Test match when he takes the field against England in the day-night game in Ahmedabad on Tuesday. Ishant is on the cusp of becoming the 2nd pacer from India to reach the 100-Tests milestone. He will also overtake former captain Mohammad Azharuddin, who played 99 Tests in his career. The 32-year-old from Delhi is the most experienced current cricketer in the Indian Test squad and is looking forward to the landmark game in Motera on February 23. "If your career is 14 years long and you are still playing, you cannot name just one highlight. It is difficult to pinpoint just one highlight, every sportsperson has the graph going up and down," Ishant told reporters. Ishant, who recently crossed the 300 wickets mark in the last Test against England, is set to become the 10th Indian.
