Rameshchandra Gangaram Nadkarni, popularly known as Bapu Nadkarni, etched his name into cricket history during the 1963-64 series against England. In the Madras (now Chennai) Test, the left-arm spinner delivered a mind-boggling spell of 21 consecutive maiden overs. Across 32 overs in that innings, he conceded a mere 5 runs. This display of relentless accuracy and control remains one of the most iconic feats in the history of Test cricket, symbolizing the virtues of patience and discipline.
