Indian cricket team in Ceylon in 1956–57

The Indian national cricket team toured Ceylon in November 1956 and played two internationals against the Ceylon national team.[1] As Ceylon had not then achieved Test status, the internationals are classified as first-class matches. Both games were played at the Paikiasothy Saravanamuttu Stadium in Colombo and ended as draws.[2][3] The Indian team was captained by Polly Umrigar and included Nari Contractor, Subhash Gupte, Pankaj Roy, A. G. Kripal Singh and Vijay Manjrekar.
