Vijay Manjrekar in action during a Test for India

Vijay Manjrekar made his Test debut against England in Kolkata back in 1951, and in the third match of his career, he proved his worth by scoring a memorable 133 at Leeds during their tour to England in 1952. Since then, he was an integral part of the squad for quite a few years and even proved to be handy with the ball as well.

Having played 55 Test matches, Vijay scored 3208 runs at an average of 39.12 which included 7 centuries. In his last Test innings against New Zealand in Chennai, he scored an unbeaten 102, a rare feat indeed.

His son, Sanjay Manjrekar, also represented the national side in the future and went on to play 37 Tests with a top score of 218.
