One of India's finest batsmen and a solid middle order batsmen. Three centuries in consecutive Test matches at Lord's but arguably his finest performance was at Headingley when he scored a 102 not out when no other batsmen in the game crossed 36. "Colonel" as he was known for his no non-sense attitude was a starwalt for Mumbai Ranji team. He continues his yeomen service to Indian cricket as an administrator and the Elf-Vengsarkar academy is a vibrant place for next generation India caps. As a kid, we were always 'graced' by Vengsarkar Sir at the Cross and Oval Maidan's at Mumbai.
Happy Birthday Sir! We really appreciate your service to Indian cricket.
