EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in cricket history - the Presidency Match between the teams representing the Bombay Presidency and the Bombay Parsees. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image showcases the passion and dedication of Indian cricketers during that time. In this photograph, we see a group of distinguished individuals who played key roles in this match. Among them are Mr. Godrej, Mr. Mistry, Mr. Patel, and Captain Newnham, representing various departments such as Public Works Department and Commissariat Department. The players from both teams exude confidence as they stand side by side on the field, ready to showcase their skills with bat and ball. The captain of Parsee XI is seen alongside Captain Cox while Major Von Donop stands tall next to Surgeon Captain J. E Trask. Behind these talented cricketers lies a backdrop of colonial India's architectural marvels - a testament to its rich heritage. This photo not only captures a sporting event but also provides us with glimpses into life during that era. Preserving moments like these is crucial for understanding our past and celebrating our cultural heritage. As we admire this remarkable photograph from Fine Art Finder's collection, let us remember those who paved the way for cricket in India - their legacy lives on through every game played today.
