Kashvee Gautam, the spunky 16-year-old bowler for Chandigarh, created history when she took 10 wickets to seal her side's win against Arunachal Pradesh during a women's U-19 one-day trophy match at KSRM College in Kadapa, Andhra Pradesh. She is the first Indian bowler to register a 10-wicket haul in limited-overs cricket.

Anil Kumble is the first and only Indian to have taken all 10 wickets in international cricket in a Test match against Pakistan in New Delhi in 1999.

Kashvee, who top-scored for Chandigarh with 49 runs of 68 balls, also took a hat-trick while bowling her second over. Chandigarh, having score 186 runs with the loss of just four wickets, won the match by 161 runs after Arunchal Pradesh were all out for 25. Among Kashvee's dismissals, six were lbws and the rest were bowled.

In Chandigarh's previous match against Jammu and Kashmir, Kashvee finished with a seven-wicket haul.

Kashvee made her debut at the age of 13 for Punjab U-19. She has so far taken 63 wickets this season, including four five-wicket hauls.
