List of The Rest (Bombay) cricketers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of cricketers who played for the former Indian team called The Rest in first-class matches. At senior level, The Rest was essentially a Bombay team active from December 1937 to January 1946. They took part in eight editions of the annual Bombay Tournament and also played in the 1940/41 Amritsar Tournament. There were other teams called The Rest, notably one which played in the Karachi-based Sind Tournament from 1919 to 1946, but those did not have first-class status. In all, the Bombay team played in twelve first-class matches. Seasons given are the first and last in which each player represented the team, but they may not have played in all the interim seasons and many played for other senior teams besides The Rest. Players in bold played international cricket.

† Names preceded by the dagger symbol are the players who took part in The Rest's inaugural first-class match on 21–13 December 1937, in which they lost to Muslims by 33 runs.[1]
