from Cricinfo - All Todays Yesterdays
India’s answer to Trevor Bailey is born. Bapu Nadkarni was their jack-of-all-trades in the 1950s and ’60s: a dogged, dour left-handed bat, a metronomic left-arm spinner and a brave close fielder. Nadkarni made one Test century - a matchsaving 122 not out against England at Kanpur in 1963-64 - and with the ball he returned the sort of figures that would chill Steve Waugh to the bone: 34-6-24-1 and 52.4-38-43-4 (v Pakistan at Delhi in 1960-61), and 32-27-5-0 against England at Chennai three years later, when he bowled 131 balls without conceding a run.
this is what i understand from the figures…
he bowled 34 overs…
6 of them were maiden (i.e. 28 overs had been scored off)…
he gave away 24 runs and took one wicket…
now if he had given away scores in 28 overs, how come he gave away just 24 runs???
he must have atleast given 1 run in each of the 28 overs (since they were not maiden)…
so please help me understand what happened???
That a wrong stats. His figure in that match was
57 22 121 2.
His figure of
32-27-5-0 against England at Chennai is considered one of the most ecomical figure in history.Specially 131 balls without conceding a run.
a wrong stat indeed....
but what u gave isnt right either....
the corret one (according to cricinfo) is:
34-24-24-1 (1st innings)
52.4-38-43-4 (2nd innings)

Pakistan bhi uss zamanay mein baray aala mayaar ke test khilaari rakhta tha---- misaal hi nai thi—wicket se bahar to chordein ge–aur wicket per aaye to roklein ge:smack:
