The Ceylon cricket team toured India in December 1932 and January 1933.
[1] Churchill Gunasekara, the captain, was called back to Ceylon during the tour in his capacity as Chief Medical Officer of Health, Colombo Municipality, in order to deal with a smallpox outbreak, and was absent during the two matches against India, when Ed Kelaart captained the team.
[3] Mervyn Kelaart scored 101 in the first innings, Ceylon's first international century.
[5] Needing 257 for victory, Ceylon lost their first six wickets for 83, but were able to hang on for a draw with the last batsmen at the crease, thanks largely to Ed Kelaart's 44 at number eight; he also scored 56 in Ceylon's first innings and took 5 for 95 in India's first innings.
In the two matches against India, Ed Kelaart made 160 runs at an average of 40.00 and took 11 wickets at 22.36.
For India, Naoomal Jaoomal, the only Indian to play in both matches, scored 252 runs at 84.00.
