If there is a record which has the least chance of getting broken, then it is Premangsu Chatterjee's record of claiming all ten wickets in one innings. The Bengal medium-pacer achieved this feat against Assam in 1956/57 and inked his name in the record books.
Chatterjee's figures of 10 for 20 are even today, the best bowling figures by an Indian in first-class cricket and logically speaking, he will have no competitors in the near future as well.
Claiming all ten wickets in an innings is a tremendous task and in 140 years of Test cricket, this feat has been achieved only twice. First by Jim Laker and then by Anil Kumble. This stat demonstrates how difficult it is to break this record.
