dbpprop:abstract
  • Babaji Palwankar Baloo,, commonly known as Palwankar Baloo, was an Indian cricketer. He bowled left-arm orthodox spin with great accuracy and the ability to turn the ball both ways. He was also a moderately skilled lower-order batsman. He was the first member of the Dalit (also known as the "Untouchable") caste to make a significant impact on the sport. He was a member of the Chaambaar sub-caste of the Dalit, who dealt with the slaughter of cattle and the production of leather – jobs unconscionable to higher-born Hindus because of the religion's veneration of the cow. In this context, Baloo was an important example of how the Indian caste system was gradually breaking down.
