Quiz! Every Indian cricketer from historic 1971 tour of England

by Wisden Staff 15 minute read

On August 24, 1971, India beat England to win their first ever Test match – and series – on English soil. Can you name every Indian cricketer on that tour?

Until 1971, India had played 19 Test matches in England, across six series. They had drawn four of these and lost 15, including whitewashes on their two previous tours, in 1967 and 1959.

Can you name all Indian cricketers in that squad? India retained the same XI for every Test match, but there were six others as well. You have three minutes.
