Veteran Indian cricketer Ishant Sharma became the second Indian seamer, and 11th overall, to reach 100 Tests when he took the field against England on day one of the third Test at the Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Sharma received special mementos from Indian President Ram Nath Kovind and Minister of Home Affairs Amit Shah on the occasion of his 100th Test match.

The Indian team also gave Ishant a guard of honour just before play started in the Pink-ball Test against England.

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.

Asked if he saw himself going past former India captain Kapil Dev's record, Ishant had said: "There's a lot of time to 131," Ishant said.

"Right now, I am only thinking about how we can win the next Test. And then the next so that we can qualify for the final of the World Test Championship. I have only [one] format [to play in], so the WTC is like a World Cup for me. If we reach the final and then go on to win it, it will be the same feeling as winning the ICC World Cup."
