Chandigarh, Jul 21 (PTI) Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Monday spoke to seamer Anshul Kamboj, who has been added to the Indian Test squad as cover and has linked up with the squad in Manchester, UK.
“The selection of Karnal’s pride, Anshul Kamboj, in the Indian cricket team for the ongoing Test match series in England is a matter of pride and joy for all the people of Haryana,” Saini posted on X in Hindi Monday evening.
In the post, Saini said he extended his heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to Anshul, who reached this milestone by playing on Haryana’s soil. Saini also wished the 24-year-old cricketer a bright future ahead.
The fourth Test is slated to begin at Old Trafford on Wednesday. Hosts England lead the five-match Anderson Tendulkar Trophy 2-1.
In November 2024, Kamboj entered the record books as he became only the third bowler in the history of Ranji Trophy to claim all 10 wickets in an innings.
