The first cricketer to take to the crease in first-class cricket in an independent India was Madhusudan Amersey, who played in the Bombay Festival Tournament competition of 1946-47 just three months after India's independence.

The first cricketer to take to the crease in a Test match involving India was Janardan Navle, on June 25, 1932. Also statistically notable about Navle is that he is one of only eleven players ever to play for the first class team of Gwalior.
