Entry of Indians to Test Cricket
THE MODERN TRANSFORMATION OF THE GAME : Tests and One-day Internationals (ODIS), played between national teams dominate modern cricket.
The players who become famous, who live on in the memories of cricket's public, are those who have played for their country. The players are remembered by Indian fans from the era of the Pentangular and the Quadrangular tournaments.
C.k Nayudu, an outstanding Indian batsman of his time, lives on in the popular imagination when some of his great contemporaries like Palwankar Vithal and Palwankar Baloo have been forgotten because his career lasted long enough for him to play Test Cricket for Indian while theirs did not.
Nayudu has past his cricketing prime when he played for Indian while theirs did not starting in 1932, his place in India's cricket history is assured because he was the country's first test captain.
Entry of Indians to Test Cricket : India entered the world of Test cricket in 1932. This was possible because Test cricket from its origins in 1877 was organised as a contest between different parts of the British empire, not sovereign nations.The first Test was played between England and Australia when Australia was still a white settler colony, not self-governing dominion. Similarly, the small countries of the Caribbean that together make up the West Indies team were British colonies after the Second World War.
Mahatma Gandhi and Colonial Sport: Mahatma Gandhi believed that sport was essential for creating a balance between the body and the mind He often emphasised that games like cricket and hockey were imported into India by the colonial masters and were replacing our traditional games.
Gandhi Ji always condemned sports like hockey and cricket.Mahatma Gandhi believed that colonial sports like hockey and cricket were not suited for Indians people for following reasons.1) He believed that these games were not adequate for developing a trained mind and body.2) According to Gandhi Ji, these games represented a colonial mindset and were replacing the traditional games of India.3) These games were imported to India by the British and were meant for privileged class. They could not represent the people of India.4) Gandhi Ji believed that colonial sports could build a strong body but could not make a body healthy sinewy.5) He also felt that cricket was creating divisions between people and classes in India as the Nationalist Movement in the country for freedom needed unity among citizens.
