England's Jim Laker and India legend Anil Kumble have taken all 10 wickets in an innings of a Test match in the past. But no one has ever taken all 10 wickets in an innings in a T20 game until teenager Aakash Choudhary ran through the opposition batting line-up in a local match in Rajasthan.

Playing for Disha Cricket Academy against Pearl Academy in the Late Bhawer Singh T20 tournament on Wednesday (November 8), the 15-year-old, who hails from Bharatpur, managed to send all of his opposition batsmen walking back to the hut. He did all this without even conceding a run in his four-over spell.

Disha Cricket Academy reportedly made 156 after being put into bat. In reply, Pearl had no chance of even getting close to the total as their batsmen struggled against the pace of the left-arm fast bowler. They were eventually bowled out for 32 in just seven overs as Chaudhury's figures read 4-4-10-0.

Only one batsman of the Pearl Academy managed to get past the 10-run mark, while there were seven ducks in the innings.
