Good article but some points:
"Indian cricketing legend" seems weasel in the lead, maybe former Indian captain
The History section needs to be improved. A brief note of the death of
Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, his significance and possibly a picture will be relevant.

Tito-bhai, the
Board of Control for Cricket in India is notoriously fickle. I've added a ref from
The Hindu where the the BCCI says it will be an ongoing event. Will it happen again in 2014 and what it will called then? I most certainly hope it goes ahead and will be called the same name. Just sayin', is all. Pete aka --

Needs a full review. Note that some of the quotes in the body of the article may need to be reset as blockquotes (see
WP:MOSQUOTE#Block quotations), and all of the quotes should be in regular type, not italics.

The history section and quote formatting have been improved, and the hook fact is cited. The article seems a little quote-heavy, but it still meets the 1,500-character requirement even without counting the quotations and content copied from another article.
