From an old archive of Mid Day March 5th , 1993 Wasim Jaffer made an inspiring knock back in his young days and we dont think he has lost his magic touch with the bat. With this knock he has scored his 53rd hundred and has appeared in more than 240 first class matches and 12 Irani cup games.

Wasim Jaffer is an inspiration. At 40, has scored a brilliant double hundred against a Rest of India attack also compromising Ashwin.
