Man Sood

An excellent record in university cricket pitchforked Sood into the Test arena against Richie Benaud's Australian side in 1959-60. But he could not make the grade and in the only Test he played at Madras, he was out to Davidson both times for 0 and 3. In the first innings he was the victim of an unusual dismissal, being stumped by Grout off the left-arm paceman. In a decade-long first-class career, Sood scored 1214 runs (28.23) with one century. Later he went into Delhi cricket administration and served as a Test selector.
