Anshul Kamboj received his Team India cap. Ha made his debut today (July 23, 2025) against England for the 4th Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy at Old Trafford, Manchester. The Haryana-born was constantly knocking on the doors of selectors 'to get a chance to represent his country as a deserving candidate. He came under the spotlight during a Ranji Trophy match between Kerala and Haryana in 2024 at Rohtak. In his match, the pacer from Karnal, Haryana, claimed all 10 wickets in the first innings of the match. A rare achievement for bowlers.

After that, Kamboj in no time stole the limelight. For the last few days, updates about his possible debut have been floating around social media platforms. Those speculations and probabilities proved correct when Kamboj got his Test captain. It was a special moment for the bowler and for Haryana as well. Cricket fans are curious to know more about the pacer, who can add some value with the bat also. 

Kamboj showed his full potential during the match against Kerala. In that match, Kerala has multiple experienced batters in their lineup, like Baba Aparajith, Sachin Baby, and Jalaj Saxena. No one is able to stand against the right-arm medium pacer. Through the video, attached below in the article, viewers can relive the 10-wicket haul of Anshul.

In his milestone spell, the well-built pacer tricked the batters through his variations. He forced the batters to play and then struck at the moments when the opposition batsmen were defenseless. Anshul's outswing with extra bounce on the green turf proved destructive.
