India plays it's first international cricket match on this very day June 25th, 75 years back i.e. in 1932!!

Surely a very memorable day. Infact interestingly India had England at 19/3 and 149/5 in that match. Still we ended up loosing. But not bad for a start right?

And also considering it took India 20 years to win a test match.
