This print captures the legendary Nawab of Pataudi Snr. , Ifitikhar Ali Khan, during his time with Worcestershire C. C. C in the 1933 cricket season. Known by various names including I. A. K. Pataudi, he holds a unique distinction as the only test cricketer to have represented both England and India on the international stage. His remarkable career reached its pinnacle during the infamous Bodyline Series of 1932/3 when he fearlessly opposed Douglas Jardine's controversial leg theory tactics while playing for England. A true icon of sportsmanship and integrity, Pataudi Sr. 's leadership skills were further recognized when he captained the All-India touring side in 1946. Notably, this talented cricketer also showcased his abilities at Oxford University before making his mark on international cricket. The legacy of excellence continued through generations as his son Mansoor, famously known as Nawab of Pataudi Jr. , went on to captain the Indian cricket team - an unprecedented father-son duo to lead their nation. Today, whenever England and India face each other in test matches, they compete for the prestigious Patuadi Trophy - a testament to the immense contributions made by this extraordinary family to both nations' cricketing history. This timeless photograph is a treasured piece from Colorsport Images collection courtesy of Wilkes Photography that immortalizes one of cricket's most revered figures – Nawab of Pataudi Snr. , forever etched
