Let's go back to the 1800s when the English started playing the game on the Indian subcontinent. It was the newly displaced Indian Royals who first took to cricket, as a proxy to their power struggle. This patronage then slowly extended from the Maharajas to skilled Indian commoners, ultimately growing the game in the country and revolutionizing this sport.
Hear about their dedication, influence on talent and lasting impact on the game uniting millions only on A Century Of Stories: Cricket podcast, presented by IDFC FIRST Bank hosted by Cyrus Broacha.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Neutral umpires are the norm today. But it wasn’t always this way. Believe it or not, the seed of this change actually occurred at a tea party thrown in 1954-55 by Pakistani skipper Abdul Kardar where he invited Lala Amarnath.
What went down at this tea party and how did a decision taken by Pakistan captain Imran Khan decades later make sure that neutrality and honesty in umpiring was maintained?
Find out as Cyrus Broacha, (the most neutral of all podcast hosts) breaks down the story for you. And make sure you tell us what ranks as the worst umpiring you’ve seen, in comments below!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
