Haryana Pacer Anshul Kamboj Scripts History in Ranji Trophy

Haryana pacer Anshul Kamboj etched his name in the annals of Indian cricket by becoming only the third bowler in the history of the Ranji Trophy to capture all 10 wickets in an innings. This remarkable feat was achieved during a Group C match against Kerala.

Kamboj's exceptional bowling display saw him dismiss the entire Kerala batting lineup for just 291 runs in their first innings. His figures of 10/49 are a testament to his accuracy, skill, and relentless effort.

Background

The Ranji Trophy is the premier first-class cricket tournament in India, and has been played annually since 1934. The tournament is named after Maharaja Ranjitsinhji, a renowned cricketer who played for England and India.

Haryana, a state in the northern part of India, has a rich cricketing history and has produced several talented players over the years. However, the team has never won the Ranji Trophy title.

Kamboj's Historic Performance

Kamboj's 10-wicket haul is a rare and exceptional achievement in first-class cricket. Only two other bowlers have managed to achieve this feat in the Ranji Trophy:

  • Subhash Gupte (Maharashtra) in 1958-59
  • Rajinder Goel (Haryana) in 1988-89

Kamboj's performance has not only brought glory to Haryana cricket but has also inspired aspiring bowlers across the country.
