Raman Lamba was born on 2 January 1960 in Meerut. He was a right-handed batsman, known for his fitness. He started his Ranji Trophy career in 1980–81 and continued until his death in the 1997–98 season. He scored 6362 runs in 87 matches at an average of 53.91, including 22 centuries and 5 double centuries. In 1994–95, he scored 1034 runs in 10 matches at an average of 73.86 with 3 centuries and 4 half-centuries, the number of record runs in a Ranji Trophy season.

He led Delhi in 8 matches in the 1994–95 season, winning 3. His score of 320 in the Duleep Trophy for North Zone against West Zone in the final in Bhilai in 1986 is still the highest individual score. In first-class cricket, he scored a total of 8776 runs at 53.84 and has 31 centuries and 27 half-centuries in his 175 innings.

Lamba's highest score was 320 * in the 1987 Duleep Trophy final for North Zone vs West Zone. With West scoring 216 runs from his captain and Test opener Anshuman Gaikwad, his first innings score may be felt very satisfied with 444. However, his opponents had other ideas and responded to 868. Lamba left Gaekwad with 320 in 720 minutes, which included sixes and thirty fours off 471 balls. That season he scored 1097 runs at 84.38.

Seven years later he again scored a triple century with 312 for Delhi in a Ranji Trophy match vs Himachal Pradesh in Delhi. The hosts scored 637-3. Announced 464 for the first wicket between Lamba and Ravi Sehgal, who scored 216 runs. Lamba's 312 392 balls took 567 minutes with two sixes and twenty-five balls. These innings and similar knocks, such as his 617-ball 250 for Delhi v Punjab in 1996/97, gave him a somewhat mixed reputation. Shortly thereafter, Raman Lamba suffered a deep head injury due to not wearing a helmet during the match. Due to which he died.
