Yashpal Sharma Was No.1 Product Of Lucknow's Sheesh Mahal Trophy
India's 1983 World Cup-winning batsman Yashpal Sharma, who passed away on Tuesday aged 66, owed his rise to stardom to two summer tournaments he regularly played in Lucknow for several years - the Sheesh Mahal Trophy and the Sir Frank Worrell Trophy, in which he scored prolifically.
Both tournaments, now discontinued, used to be played in peak summer, in April-May, in Lucknow and Sharma was probably the biggest player that emerged from there, particularly from the Sheesh Mahal Trophy. Sharma started appearing in the tournament in early 1970s.
