Vidarbha cricket team[edit]

When a source like CI/Mihir Bose is contradicted as in the addition of this tag and its subsequent removal, it needs a proper explanatin. Those two sources state that Madhya Bharat became Vidarbha but no evidence supports this. Madhya Bharat was dissolved and Vidarbha was formed in the same year and Bose seems to have been guided by that.

1. Vidarbha is north-eastern Maharashtra. Madhya Bharat was formed (according to the article) from Central India Agency. By the hazy map in the latter page, there is no overlap.

2. The home ground of Holkar and Madhya Bharat was Indore where they played all their home matches and it is now in Madhya Pradesh. Vidarbha cricket team plays at Nagpur.

3. The cricket team of Vidarbha seems to have been carved out of Madhya Pradesh team, but Madhya Bharat got dissolved into MP quite independent of this. If you look at the first match played by Vidarbha, http://cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/22/22754.html, there were two debutants but the rest were former MP or Central provinces players and no one was a former MB/Holkar player. Of those who played in the last MB match http://cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/22/22285.html ten of them played for MP, and the only one who played for Vidarbha did it after playing for MP till 1968.
