NEW DELHI: On this day, February 7, in 1999, India's spin legend Anil Kumble became only the second bowler and the first Indian to claim all 10 wickets in an innings of a Test match. Kumble achieved this 'unthinkable feat' in the Delhi Test at the Feroz Shah Kotla ground (now Arun Jaitley Stadium) against arch-rivals Pakistan.
Prior to leg-spinner Kumble, England’s Jim Laker held the record of dismissing all 10 batters in an innings of a Test match. Laker achieved this incredible feat in 1956 against Australia.
