Abhimanyu Mithun (born 25 October 1989) is an Indian former cricketer. A right-arm fast-medium bowler, Mithun was called up to the India squad for the first Test against South Africa in 2009–10, only ten weeks after making his first-class debut. He has also played in the IPL for Royal Challengers Bangalore. In November 2019, he became the first bowler to take a hat-trick in all three domestic formats of top-level cricket in India. In first class cricket, he played for Karnataka, before retiring from the format in October 2021.
