  1. contractor


  2. I don't think it was any of them. I believe that it was Davcar Foshurture.

  3. I think it should be Sourav Ganguly ....

  4. AJITH WADEKAR

  5. Nari Contractor

    Contractor led India to a series win against England in 1961-62 and captained the side to West Indies the same season. There, in the match against Barbados, he ducked to a short ball from Charlie Griffith which failed to come up

  6. I think Sourav Ganguly

  7. Nari Contractor was the first left handed batsman to captain

    India. But Nari was a right handed medium pacer.

    The first left handed bowler to captain India was Vinoo Mankad.

    He was a right handed batsman and slow left arm orthodox

    bowler.

    Ajit Wadekar was the second left handed batsman to captain

    India.

    The next was Sourav Ganguly - a lefty batsman and right hand

    bowler - just as Vinoo Mankad.

    Farooq Engineer was never a captain and he was a right handed batsman.

    Bedi was a right handed batsman and captained India, but he

    was a left arm bowler.
