While playing for his school in the Harris Shield Trophy 2006, Thakur hit 6 sixes in an over and became the third-ever cricketer to do so. In the 2012-13 Ranji season, he took 27 wickets in 6 matches, averaging 26.25, including one five-wicket haul. An aggressive quick bowler, who can swing the ball away from the right-handers even while hitting the pitch hard, Shardul Thakur has established himself as the spearhead of Mumbai's attack. With the new ball, Thakur's at-the-batsman method forms a neat counterpoint to Dhawal Kulkarni's more metronomic style, and the two combined brilliantly to win Mumbai their 41st Ranji Trophy title in February 2016. Thakur picked up eight wickets in the final against Saurashtra, and his dismissal of Cheteshwar Pujara on the third day, the ball rearing up from a length to hit the shoulder of the bat, was perhaps the ball of the match.
