Errata - Part Deux

This is a clarification for the answer no. 3 posted in the PART DEUX quiz . The question had three pictures - Anil Kumble, Debashish Mohanty and Subhash Gupte and it was a connect question. The answer that was mentioned by me was that they were the only Indians to have picked up 10 wickets in an entire innings on Indian soil. One of my blog readers, Mit Choudhary points out that they weren't the only ones. In fact considering only first class matches, there two other Indians who have achieved this feat. PM Chatterjee took 10/20 in a Bengal vs Assam match in 1956-57 while P Sunderam repeated the act picking 10/78 in a Rajasthan vs Vidharba match in 1985-86. Thank you, Mit for this great piece of information.
