[Watch] Anshul Kamboj’s all 10 wickets in the historic Perfect 10 in Haryana vs Kerala Ranji Trophy 2024-25 match
Haryana pacer Anshul Kamboj produced a sensational effort in the 2024-25 Ranji Trophy game against Kerala. He picked up all 10 wickets of the opposition team at the Chaudhary Bansi Lal Stadium in Lahli.
Kamboj became only the third bowler to take all 10 wickets in an innings in the tournament's history. Previously, Bengal's Premangsu Chatterjee (1956-57) and Rajasthan's Pradeep Sunderam (1985-86) achieved the same feat.
The 23-year-old began the third day (Friday) with Kerala at 285/8. He then dismissed Basil Thampi and Shaun Roger to finish with figures of 10/49. These are the best figures by a Haryana bowler in Ranji Trophy history. Earlier, Joginder Sharma held this record with figures of 8/24 in the 2004-05 season.

The Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 witnessed Haryana topping their group points table with wins in all seven games. In the semi-finals, Anshul Kamboj finished with figures of 4/30 to help his side beat Tamil Nadu by 63 runs.
Kamboj added two to his tally in the final, as Haryana went on to win by 30 runs against Rajasthan to claim the title. The right-arm pacer scalped a total of 17 wickets in 10 appearances.
Anshul Kamboj was also the leading wicket-taker in the Duleep Trophy 2024 with 16 scalps in five innings. He played for India C, who finished second on the points table.
