Great cricketer too

โ€œSingh, Hurree Jamset Ram (Study No 13) โ€“ Indian Prince. Introduced in Magnet No. 6 (1908). Nabob of the fictional state of Bhanipur, where he was taught a peculiarly idiomatic version of English and thought most things were "terrific". Nicknamed 'Inky'. A fine cricketer (the best bowler in the Remove), with a sharp mind and an extremely perceptive judge of human nature. A skilled exponent of chess. A member of the Famous Five. He had a long break from the series going to the Delhi Durbar in early 1911 and it was wondered whether he would return as Johnny Bull became the fourth member of the Famous Four at the end of the year. After most of a year away, he returned in Magnet No. 211 (Feb 24, 1912).โ€
