The British enabled an untouchable to play in the British cricket team in 1896.

Independence India has disabled untouchables since August 15, 1947.

On February 8, 1906, Hindus versus Europeans, Palwankar Baloo was the first and last untouchable caste-Indian cricketer-bowler who played as a team member of colonial India in the Hindus versus European cup. Any untouchable caste player was barred from playing for independent India's cricket team. Incredible India.
