TRIVIA: When An Indian Scored A Century At Lord's, But For England

By IANS News August 13, 2021 • 10:48 AM View: 2684

Kannur Lokesh Rahul is officially the tenth Indian to score a century at Lord's, but if one adds the one scored in 1930 by Kumar Shri Duleepsinhji of Nawanagar, the Saurashtra royal after whom the Duleep Trophy is named, the 29-year-old from Karnataka should be No. 11.

The catch, though, is that Duleepsinhji was playing for England. And he scored his century at Lord's in the second Test match of the 1930 Ashes, which saw Don Bradman notch up 974 runs, including his career-highest 334 at Headingly, Leeds.
