Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi is remembered as one of the greatest captains in Indian Cricket history. Tiger Pataudi, as he was famously called, played for Sussex and Oxford while studying in England. Pataudi met a fatal car accident that severely damaged his right eye and put him in danger of ending his cricketing career.
But the Nawab of Pataudi went on to play for India despite having trouble viewing from his right eye and also captained the team to nine Test victories. The finest innings of his career came against Australia in Melbourne in 1967-68 where he scored 75 with one eye while standing on one leg.
