Sind Cricket Tournament 1945. Europeans v Muslims. Official folding scorecard for the semi-final match played at Karachi, 27th & 28th October 1945. The scorecard with neatly handwritten scores in ink, shows the Europeans scoring 119 and 192 in their two innings, the Muslims scoring 328 for four wickets declared, the Muslims winning by an innings and seventeen runs. The Europeans were captained by ‘F/O Simpson’, very likely Reg Simpson (Sind, Europeans, Nottinghamshire & England 1944-1963) who served as a pilot with the R.A.F. during the war. For the Muslims, Ibrahim Vazir (Sind 1940-1943, five first-class matches) is recorded taking seven wickets for 20 runs in the first innings. Some age toning, otherwise in good/ very good condition. Rare.
