Mayhem
at Johannesburg - looks like book
Cricket – India finishing at 283/1 in 20 overs. Abhishek Sharma hit the ball to

A post on Indian domestic Cricket - Haryana vs Kerala, Elite Group C match at Ch Bansi Lal Cricket Stadium, Rohtak ! and before you proceed can you identify this person – he is Pradeep Sunderam.
All Cricket followers in India are searching about this person as Anshul Kamboj, Haryana fast bowler bagged 10 for 49 against Kerala, and became the sixth Indian to achieve the feat in first-class cricket. Today he achieved this feat when he dismissed Kerala's Shoun Roger at the Chaudhary Bansi Lal Stadium in Lahli, to finish with figures of 30.1-9-49-10 in the first innings.
Two other bowlers had taken all ten wickets in an innings in the Ranji Trophy previously: Bengal's Premangsu Chatterjee in 1956-57 and Rajasthan's Pradeep Sunderam in 1985-86. Overall, Kamboj is the sixth Indian to achieve this feat in first-class cricket after legspinners Subhash Gupte and Anil Kumble, and Odisha seamer Debasis Mohanty. While there have been 90 instances of bowlers taking all ten wickets in an innings in first-class cricket, Kumble along with England's Jim Laker and New Zealand's Ajaz Patel are the only ones to do it in a Test match.
Kamboj, 23, comes from Karnal in Haryana, a boxing heartland, and began playing cricket on open fields. In less than a decade, Kamboj has progressed to play for his state team and has also broken into the IPL. The milestone of ten wickets in an innings is yet another achievement for Kamboj over the last 12 months. He took 17 wickets in ten games with an economy of 3.58 in Harayana's run to the Vijay Hazare Trophy title, including a best of 4 for 30 in the semi-final against Tamil Nadu. Then playing for India C against India B during the Duleep Trophy in September, Kamboj picked up 8 for 69, his best first-class figures until the ten-wicket haul. That performance included the wickets of seasoned domestic batters like Sarfaraz Khan, Rinku Singh and N Jagadeesan. Last month, he was part of the India Emerging squad at the T20 Asia Cup, where he turned in a match-winning performance of 3 for 33 against Pakistan Shaheens.
Kamboj also got his maiden IPL contract this year with Mumbai Indians and played three games at the back end of a season where they finished in last place. He was a candidate to be an uncapped retention ahead of the IPL 2025 auction, and although that didn't happen his performances this year will make him one of the uncapped Indian players to watch at the auction on November 24 and 25.
The man at the
start - fast bowler by name Pradeep Sunderam.
His father - Gundibail Rama Sunderam played 2 tests against visiting New
Zealand in 1955. In 1957 at Jorhat, Assam were bundled out by
Bengal – PK Chatterjee excelled with figures of 19-11-20-10; in 1985 at Jodhpur, playing for Rajasthan
Pradeep Sunderam had figures of 22-5-78-10 and took another 6 wickets in the
2nd innings against Vidarbha. The man
whose bowling action was the logo in 1999 WC, Debashis Mohanty had figures of
19-5-48-10 in a Duleep trophy match in 2001 at Agartala against South Zone.
Following all this, fast bowler Anshul Kamboj etched his name in Ranji Trophy history today becoming the first bowler in 39 years to claim all 10 wickets in an innings.
Great achievement
from this young lad ! – well done Anshul Kamboj
