CK Nayudu ?
I think that's correct. Born 31/10/1895, he played his last first class match on 2-4th November 1963 at a grand old age of 68 !! :D

Your turn to post next question ! :)

Most players with the same surname in a first class match?
I guess that would be reserved for Khan :p

BTW Smith is the most common surname of a test cricketer the last time I checked.

I guess no one objects me asking one..

What world record is/was Bhupinder Singh Jr. a part of?
He was part of JS Rao's record of 2 hat tricks in the same game in 1963-4. Services v Northern Punjab.

Jamee is partly right ! :)

Because if you look at this score card there is 2 Bupinder Singh's one who was part of the hat-trick as a batter and another in the same Team as JS Rao.

This is not the world record I am referring to. So no one has got it yet I am afraid.
460 runs for the seventh wicket with Pankaj Dharmani . Delhi versus Punjab 94-95
