Here is something for you Googs.. since the author ducking..

By the 1960s, cricket had become an insatiable passion for Calcuttans. The change from the meadow game ambience was brought about by the genius of Rohan Kanhai and Garfield Sobers as well as by the fury of Wesley Hall and Roy Gilchrist. Little did the brilliant West Indies cricketers of Gerry Alexander’s 1958 team realize that they were about to transform the city’s pleasant winter pastime into a collective infatuation.

There is no doubt that cricket was gaining popularity in the city ever since Ranji strode on to the Eden Gardens’ turf and the local hero, Bidhu Mukherji, hit centuries against the CCC. Mohammad Nissar’s ferocious pace, Mushtaq Ali’s lissome elegance and Sir Jack Hobbs’s brilliance had also captured the imagination of the locals who also marvelled at the exploits of Charlie Macartney, Vinoo Mankad, Lala Amarnath, Denis Compton, Keith Miller, and so on. But the actual metamorphosis came in 1958 with the advent of Rohan Kanhai and his mind-boggling stroke-play, which, at times, seemed to defy even the laws of gravity. Queues would form before a Test, and a match ticket became an established status symbol.
