Vidarbha's left-arm spinner Harsh Dubey created history on Friday when he picked 3 for 88 against Kerala on Day 3 of the Ranji Trophy final on Friday.

 

Dubey (3/88) now has most wickets by any bowler in a season in the tournament's history.

The 22-year-old young left-arm spinner has taken 69 wickets so far this season, eclipsing the 68 by Bihar's Ashutosh Aman in 2018-19.

His wickets came at a superb average of 16.98. 

'I was not thinking about the record, honestly. I was only thinking about helping my team take the first-innings lead. The record, obviously is an achievement for me. I am feeling proud and happy, I just spoke with my parents at home,' he told the media after day's play.

'Even though it was very hot, I wanted to contribute for my team, put in as much effort as I possibly can, because this is the last game and last effort.

'I was not thinking about how many overs it had been but I was only focussed on getting my team into a good situation and that was my plan,' he added.
