Ranji Trophy: Jalaj Saxena Becomes First Player With 6000 Runs And 400 Wickets
Ranji Trophy: Kerala’s all-rounder Jalaj Saxena became the first player to achieve the remarkable double of 6000 runs and 400 wickets in the Ranji Trophy during Elite Group C fourth round match against Uttar Pradesh at St Xavier's College Ground.
Saxena, who crossed the 6000-run mark in Kerala's previous match in Kolkata, reached the milestone after he claimed his fourth dismissal of the game, taking the wicket of left-hander Nitish Rana with a sharp off-spin delivery that saw Rana stumped.
The 37-year-old is the 13th bowler in the Ranji Trophy history to have reached the 400-wicket mark. His 400th wicket also marked his 29th five-wicket haul in Ranji Trophy.
