This iconic image showcases the All-India captain during the 1946 tour of England, specifically at New Road, Worcester on May 4th. Nawab of Pataudi Snr. , also known as I. A. K. Pataudi or Ifitikhar Ali Khan, holds a unique distinction as the only test cricketer to have played for both England and India. Notably, he made his mark during the infamous Bodyline Series in 1932/3 when he bravely opposed Douglas Jardine's controversial leg theory tactics. A true leader on and off the field, Nawab of Pataudi Snr. captained the All-India touring side in 1946 with great honor and pride.
