Last month, India’s oldest Test cricketer, Dattajirao Gaekwad, passed away in Vadodara at the age of 95 due to age-related health issues. Gaekwad, who was the former Indian captain, was in the ICU for almost two weeks before breathing his last.
He played 11 Test matches for India between 1952 and 1961 and had the honor of captaining the team during the 1959 tour of England. Gaekwad also amassed 3,139 runs at an impressive average of 47.56, scoring 14 centuries in the Ranji Trophy. In 2016, Gaekwad became India’s oldest living Test cricketer following the passing of Deepak Shodhan, who was 87 at the time.
