Indian spinner Manav Suthar equals incredible 131-year-old record

## Historic Bowling Performance

Indian spinner Manav Suthar has equaled a remarkable cricket record that dates back to 1895. Playing for Warwickshire against Glamorgan in the County Championship, Suthar delivered an extraordinary performance by taking three wickets without conceding a single run across both innings of the match.

## Impressive Match Figures

Suthar bowled a total of 15 deliveries, all dot balls, and claimed three wickets. In Glamorgan's first innings, he bowled just three balls, dismissing the last batsman. In the second innings, he bowled two complete overs, taking two more wickets, leading to Glamorgan's dismissal for 65 runs. His match figures were 2.3 overs, 2 maidens, 0 runs, and 3 wickets.

## A Rare Achievement

This feat makes Suthar only the second bowler in first-class cricket history to achieve such a record, the first being Tom Hayward in 1895. Suthar's exceptional performance contributed to Warwickshire's victory by an innings and 257 runs.

## A Stellar Year

Suthar's achievements this year have been noteworthy. He made his Test debut for India against Afghanistan in June, taking seven wickets in the match. He continued his impressive form against Sri Lanka and now boasts 21 wickets in eight County Championship innings for Warwickshire.
