Stadium released 432 balloons when Kapil Dev took 432nd Test wicket

As many as 432 balloons were released in the air from the stadium when Kapil Dev took his 432nd wicket and became the then world's leading Test wicket-taker on February 8, 1994. Dev surpassed Richard Hadlee's record of 431 wickets after dismissing Sri Lanka's Hashan Tillakaratne in Ahmedabad. Dev is the only Indian pacer to take 400-plus wickets in Tests.
