Rohan Kanhai: Indo- Guyanese Hero Turns 8. By Clem Seecharran. Rohan Bholalall Kanhai will be 8. December 2. 01. 5.
He was born at Port Mourant, British Guiana (Guyana). He represented the West Indies in 7. Tests between 1. 95. He scored 6,2. 27 runs at an average of 4.
His highest score is 2. Calcutta in December 1.
He appeared in 6. Rohan Kanhai in full flow (internet photo)consecutive Tests between 3. May 1. 95. 7 and 2. February 1. 96. 9, when a nagging knee injury forced him to withdraw from the tour of New Zealand. In his first- class career (1.
But it is the way Rohan scored his runs, the unconquerable flair that has stayed with aging devotees. As he explains in his autobiography of 1.
Blasting for Runs: . His perceived genius would be refracted through the political, necessarily an ethnic Guyanese prism. Two men from Plantation Port Mourant . Cricket was more than politics by other means for Indo- Guyanese.
Kanhai and Jagan were intertwined with Indian religious iconography that bordered on deification. It paralleled Cheddi Jagan. It fed their abiding iconoclasm, as well as their meteoric rise. Reform on the plantation (by the . And with the suspension of the constitution, six months after Cheddi Jagan. Overseas reporters turned up continually at Port Mourant in the mid- 1.
To the people on the plantation, moreover, this spoke of their heroic challenge of the old order, something exhilaratingly provocative that would change their world. This was the spirit of place and temper of the time that fashioned the temperament of Rohan Kanhai. It was evident as early as April 1. Kanhai played his second first- class match, against Australia. He had cross- batted the great Keith Miller several times on his way to a half- century, and was reprimanded afterwards by the famous man for playing across the line. Rohan was not daunted; he saw that as a challenge to continue to execute his strokes instinctually, deemed risky and . But the Daily Argosy had recognised the special gifts of 1.
Kanhai as early as that match, observing that only he and Clyde Walcott were . Barbados were dismissed for 2. His skills and his mercurial approach were congruent with a seminal Indo- Guyanese aspiration . Kanhai would henceforth speak for his people whether he liked it or not. So when he was selected to tour England with the West Indies in 1. The Trinidadian journalist, Owen Mathurin, noted: . He possesses a variety of strokes .
Kanhai had an undistinguished tour. The pain of Indo- Guyanese was palpable, however credible the explanation for Kanhai. No batsman reached 4. Collie Smith was first with 3. Worrell, 3. 8. 8. Sobers, 3. 2. 0. 0, Walcott, 2.
Kanhai was fifth with 2. Weekes, 1. 9. 5. 0. That Indo- Guyanese were not overwhelmed with despair was largely attributable to Cheddi. All the great stars were eclipsed on that tour of 1.
Rohan may not get another chance was gnawing. Many Indo- Guyanese offered prayers that Rohan Kanhai, like Cheddi Jagan, would deliver soon.
He reached 9. 6 in Trinidad and 6. British Guiana, but his average of 3.
Olympian batting of Garry Sobers, who averaged 1. But Rohan was selected to go on the West Indies tour of India, in 1. It was seen as a kind of homecoming; and he had to come good now.
To do otherwise would give the impression, in Mother India, that the years had been squandered. Two other Port Mourant batsmen were also selected: Basil Butcher and Joe Solomon.
Three Indians were in the West Indies team: Kanhai, Solomon and Sonny Ramadhin. Kanhai made 6. 6 and 2. Bombay, falling to the leg- spinner, Subhash Gupte (1. In the first innings of the second Test, at Kanpur, he was bowled by Gupte for 0; he made 4.
Gupte was a brilliant exponent of the googly (some say two types, of varying pace), but equally adept at bowling a range of deliveries in the same over, including the flipper, while maintaining impeccable control. And he bore his admirable skills with a palpable cockiness, unnerving in its timing and conducive to fallibility by his victims. In 1. 95. 3, when he had lured West Indian batsmen into extravagance and sudden death . In the first Test I presented him with his 1.
Test wicket. Garry Sobers went down with stomach trouble so I batted at no. I belted 3. 4 boundaries in a stay just under five hours and shared an unbroken fourth wicket stand of 1. Butcher. My century, made in 1.
The next day I scythed my way to 2. I had topped Frank Worrell. He was enthralled by Kanhai. In the next Test, at Madras, Kanhai and Butcher were again prolific, scoring 9. Joe Solomon made 8.
Kanpur Test and 1. New Delhi; he topped the batting averages (1. Joe recalls that his innings in Delhi was watched by one of his heroes . Joe Solomon recalls that India took Rohan to her heart: a gifted returning son. After his 2. 56 at Calcutta, Kanhai was the recipient of an accolade that Indo- Guyanese could claim as recognition of their progress as a people in British Guiana: . A senior Indo- Guyanese politician related it to Ian while on a visit to the Corentyne in 1. This man had a brother who was a doctor; another was a famous lawyer; his sister was at university overseas.
His father had started as a cane- cutter at Port Mourant; his grandfather was a . It seemed like months, if not years, the voyage lasted. And the one clear memory the old man had was that each night on the deck he looked at the stars blazing in the sky and gradually, as night succeeded night, his eyes, coached by the imagination, gradually picked out the shape of a tiger leaping in the sky amidst the constellations.
That was what he recalled in the hardship and the monotony and the homesickness of the journey . And he told it to his grandson and his grandson told it to me and during the Corentyne weekend traced himself for me that tiger- shape still blazing in the sky. And now at nights, at certain times of the year, I still look up and I think of the old man on his long voyage, and the generations who have done well after him, and it seems to me the tiger leaping in the stars must have become for him a sort of symbol of pride and strength and beauty which he could not then hope to possess but which perhaps he could yearn for in his new land one day. And it seems to me, also, that the generations have not misplaced the symbol or the old man. But their best bowler, Roy Gilchrist (1. India (2. 6 wickets at 1. He was sent home because of irreconcilable problems with his captain, Gerry Alexander (1.
Kanhai believes that the absence of Gilchrist, in conjunction with the coir matting on which two of the Tests were played, led to their defeat by 2- 1. In their fast- medium bowler and captain, Fazal Mahmood (1. Pakistan had a marvellous practitioner of variation of pace on the mat. The first and second Tests, in Karachi and Dacca, were played on the coir mat: Fazal got 1. West Indies won the final Test, in Lahore, by an innings and 1. This was played on a conventional turf pitch; Fazal took 1 for 9.
West Indies only innings. Kanhai clearly did not enjoy the mat. In Karachi and Dacca his scores were 3. But his double centuries (2.
Calcutta; 2. 17 in Lahore) were beautiful to watch, and they established his reputation as a magical batsman of captivating style, thus answering the Indo- Guyanese yearning. His innings at Lahore was watched by General Ayube Khan, the Pakistani President. Kardar (1. 92. 5- 9. Pakistan in the West Indies in 1.
Rohan. It shall live in our memory as a reminder that in this age of cricketing prudence, indiscretions are as welcome as they are rare. In a partnership of 1. The innings was existence itself and presence at the ground a privilege. This Kanhai- Sobers association. We were privileged to see two princely cricketers in artistic performance. It shall continue to shine with increasing brilliance and shall be remembered, reviewed and recreated whenever a Test is played at the Bagh- i- Jinnah ground.
In June 1. 95. 9, the editor of the Nation in Trinidad, C. L. R. James, reproduced an article by India. He was meticulous in demonstrating that the flamboyant play was now grounded in solid technical competence, manifested in his application in mastering the formidable craft of Subhash Gupte, the versatile Indian leg- spinner. In fact, it is he who gave the first indications that Gupte could be mastered long before the series ended. Getting his nose right down, he reached well forward to defend against the ball that held out the slightest threat of coming off the wicket awkwardly.
Nothing seemed to curb the adventurer in Kanhai. At Kanpur he was out for a . Surer fielding hands could have made Kanhai pay heavily for his exuberance in the early stages of his monumental innings at Calcutta, but he was absolutely irrepressible and scored at a rate which enabled the West Indies to finish the match before lunch on the fourth day. One is grateful that Kanhai, after the first two Tests against England, in 1. Kanhai. Naipaul (born 1. Nobel Laureate in Literature in 2. It is their art that counts ultimately .
Imprisoned by their gifts, and carriers of massive burdens dictated by race and identity, it was virtually impossible for them to resume assumptions to normality. Kanhai and Naipaul were the first world- class batsman and writer respectively to emerge from the community. Their rise to eminence, in the early 1. Empire, embodied Indo- West Indian arrival .
They felt they had now earned a place in the creole sensibility. Neither man was comfortable with, or probably even comprehended, the burden with which they were saddled. Consequently, they often resented the mercurial behaviour of their Indo- West Indian compatriots to their art. However, from such unfathomable responses is the complex texture of identity woven; and although Indians were pained by the frequent inability of Kanhai to convert good scores into centuries (he made 2.
Tests), the technical mastery and flair did sustain the representative role they thrust upon him. However great the angst Indo- Guyanese experienced when Kanhai disappointed them, it could not diminish his iconic stature.
