3 Indian Players who have their names in the Guinness Book of World Records

#2 Raja Maharaj Singh (Oldest FC Player)

The governor of Bombay, Raja Maharaj Singh realised his passion for cricket quite late but was eventually able to fulfil his dream. Hailing from a Kathpura Royal Family, he made his First-Class debut at the age of 72 Years and 192 Days to claim a record and write his name with golden letters in the history of cricket.

The match was held between the Governor's XI and Commonwealth XI. Maharaj Singh who was leading the Governor's XI, came out to bat at no. 9 on Day 1, although he had to soon go back to the pavilion as he was caught at the first slip on the score of just 4 runs. After the dismissal, he did not take the field for the rest of the match as Patiala’s Yadavindra Singh led the team in his absence.
