Indian Cricket History By Abhishek Mukherjee

The first major English team to tour India was led by GF Vernon, in 1889/90. They played 13 matches, of which they won 10 and drew 2. The most-anticipated clash was against the Parsees, at Bombay Gymkhana. The match was promoted as the "Cricket Championship of India". This was the only match Vernon's side lost.
