24-year-old Anshul Kamboj, who was added to India’s Test squad for the last two matches of the ongoing series against England, is making his debut for India on Wednesday (July 23) in Manchester. The right-arm medium pacer from Karnal has replaced Akash Deep in the playing XI for the Manchester Test.
Anshul, who made headlines for taking all 10 wickets in an innings of a Ranji Trophy match for Haryana last year against Kerala in Rohtak, is the 318th cricketer to play Test cricket for India.
He has 79 wickets to his name in 24 first-class matches played so far.
He played his last competitive match for India A against England Lions in Northampton from June 6 to 9, 2025, and picked up two wickets in each innings, apart from scoring an unbeaten 51 runs with the bat in the second innings of the drawn match.
In the IPL, Kamboj plays for Chennai Super Kings. He was signed for Rs 3.40 crore by the Chennai-based franchise in the mega auction last year.
