MP U-19 TEAM TO SRI LANKA - 2012
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
I would like to congratulate the MP U/19 team members for their selection for the tour of Sri Lanka during the
month of May 2012 to compete against the counterparts from the Island.
I believe the players would be raring to display their skills and perform in Sri Lanka, a Country widely
appreciated for its cricket friendly culture.
MPCA is delighted to note the keenness expressed by the teams from Sri Lanka to play against us for the second
consecutive year.
Last year’s tour gave an exceptional platform for the upcoming players and the exposure has augmented their
cricketing abilities to a great extent. This is evident from the fantastic performance of our U/19 team during the
last cricketing season of BCCI.
I must also appreciate the excellent abilities and display of skill on part of the team members that toured Colombo the last year. Their
efforts have helped in creating the sturdy edifice for this strong association with the domestic teams from Sri Lanka.
We are sure of a similar performance from the present set of boy’s. It is important that the players sustain the passion and desire to play on
at the higher level. We expect them to make most use of the facilities and conveniences that are being offered to them on a regular basis.
Our confidence in the young blood will certainly yield excellent results in the future and this will be the ultimate achievement for MPCA
and all our associates.
I appreciate the support received from Cricket Sri Lanka in making this tour a reality.
With regards,
Jyotiraditya M Scindia
President

PREAMBLE TO THE LAWS OF CRICKET
Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique appeal
to the fact that it should be played not only within its
Laws but also within the Spirit of the Game.
Any action which is seen to abuse this spirit causes
injury to the game itself. The major responsibility for
ensuring the spirit of fair play rests with the captains.
1.
4.
The Spirit of the Game involves RESPECT for:
Your opponents
Your own captain and team
The role of the umpires
The game and its traditional values
5.
It is against the Spirit of the Game:
There are two Laws which place the
responsibility for the team's conduct firmly on
the captain.
To dispute an umpire's decision by word, action
or gesture
To direct abusive language towards an
opponent or umpire
Responsibility of captains
The captains are responsible at all times for
ensuring that play is conducted within the Spirit
of the Game as well as within the Laws.
To indulge in cheating or any sharp practice, for
instance:
(a)
to appeal knowing that the batsman is not
out
(b)
to advance towards an umpire in an
aggressive manner when appealing
(c)
to seek to distract an opponent either
verbally or by harassment with persistent
clapping or unnecessary noise under the
guise of enthusiasm and motivation of
one's own side
Player's conduct
In the event of a player failing to comply with
instructions by an umpire, or criticising by word
or action the decisions of an umpire, or showing
dissent, or generally behaving in a manner
which might bring the game into disrepute, the
umpire concerned shall in the first place report
the matter to the other umpire and to the player's
captain, and instruct the latter to take action.
2.
Fair and unfair play
According to the Laws the umpires are the sole
judges of fair and unfair play.
The umpires may intervene at any time and it is
the responsibility of the captain to take action
where required.
3.
The umpires are authorised to intervene in cases
of:
Time wasting
Damaging the pitch
Dangerous or unfair bowling
Tampering with the ball
Any other action that they consider to be unfair
4
6.
Violence
There is no place for any act of violence on the
field of play.
7.
Players
Captains and umpires together set the tone for
the conduct of a cricket match. Every player is
expected to make an important contribution to
this.
The players, umpires and scorers in a game of
cricket may be of either gender and the Laws
apply equally to both.
The use, throughout the text, of pronouns
indicating the male gender is purely for brevity.
Except where specifically stated otherwise, every
provision of the Laws is to be read as applying to
women and girls equally as to men and boys.
THE JOURNEY OF THE GREAT HOLKAR TEAM
TO PINNACLE OF GLORY IN THE RANJI TROPHY
In the summer of 1934, BCCI in
its meeting held at Shimla,
conceptualized National Cricket
Tournament, Ranji Trophy, named
after K.S. Ranjit Singh of Navanagar,
at the behest of Bhupendra Sigh,
Maharaja of Patiala, who donated
the Trophy made of Gold.
“Madras” had the privilege to host
the first match on 4th. Nov. 1934.
M.J.Gopalan had the honour of
delivering the first ball, faced by N.
Curtis.
VIJAY NAYUDU ANALYSES
THE "HOLKAR ERA"
which is a record matched only by
Bombay (now known as Mumbai).
The “Holkar” won the Ranji Trophy
in 1945-46, 1947-48, 1950-51 &
1952-53.
The salient features of the “Holkar”
team were as under:
It was a team of “All-rounders”,
which gave a variety of options
to the Captain to use the
resources of the team to its
advantage in a given situation.
l
wickets were down as the batters to
come were CK Nayudu, KM
Rangnekar, MM Jagdale, HG
Gaikwad and JN Bhaya or SD
Dhanwade.
V. Dixit was the only player who
seemed to have played for
Holkar as a Bowler.
l
S. Mushtaq Ali had the
distinction of playing all the 49
matches which speaks about his
commitment and physical
fitness as he was the highest run
l
It had tremendous batting
depth up to no. 10 with even the
no. 11 having the ability to hold
his end if situation demanded,
as was the case in the final
played against Bengal in 195253 when the last wicket played
for 90 minutes to draw the
match and win the final on the
basis of first inning lead.
l
Players from Indore & M P, UP, &
Rajasthan played for “Central India”
from 1934-35 to 1939-40, playing
11 matches. The team did not
participate in the year 1940-41.
“Holkar” team participated in the
Ranji Trophy from 1941-42 to
1954-55, playing 49 matches
during 14 years of their
participation and reached the
Finals on 10 occasions, from 1944-
The team relied heavily on its
batting strength and often out
batted its opponent by putting
up big scores. At one time six
batsmen scored century in an
innings, which is a record. This
was against Mysore at Indore in
1945-46.
l
The team had flexible batting
order thus not allowing the
opponent to formulate any
strategy even if the first 4
l
getter for the team.
Col. CK Nayudu captained the
team in 40 matches while S.
Mushtaq Ali captained the team
in 9 matches.
l
Self belief, positive approach
and discipline were the
hallmark and the main
attributes of the success of the
Great Holkar team in the Ranji
Trophy Tournament.
