He has also reached the 100-wicket milestone in just 24 Tests, making him the joint-fifth-fastest English bowler to achieve the feat since World War II, joining legends Ian Botham, Derek Underwood, Steve Harmison, Graeme Swann and Tony Lock.

Air India said it flies millions of passengers and "such misleading news reports belie the airline's resolve to customer centricity and empathy."
