  Gaekwad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Gaekwad (or Gaekwar, once rendered as Guicowar) (Gujarati: ગાયકવાડ ; Marathi: गायकवाड) was a Maratha dynasty that ruled the princely state of Baroda in western India from the mid-eighteenth century until 1947.
The Gaekwads were granted the city as a fief by the Peshwa, the de facto leader of the Maratha empire.
After the Maratha confederacy was defeated by the Afghans at the Third Battle of Panipat in 1761, the Gaekwads, along with several powerful Maratha clans, established themselves as virtually independent rulers of the further regions of the empire, while recognizing the nominal authority of the Peshwas and suzerainty of the Bhonsle Maharaja of Satara.

 Cricinfo - Players and Officials - Aunshuman Gaekwad
Aunshuman Gaekwad's scoring range was limited and his batting lacked elegance, but raw courage against pace that he possessed was a precious commodity in Indian cricket, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he made it into the team on that virtue alone.
Gaekwad's guts-and-glory saga reached its peak when, bruised and battered by Michael Holding's modern-day Bodyline in the 1975-76 Jamaica bloodbath, he scored 81, a feat rendered doubly impressive by the fact that it came in an era when there were neither helmets nor restrictions on bouncers.
Gaekwad had to have an operation after he was tattooed on the ear by a Holding bouncer that punctured his eardrum.

HAMILTON, New Zealand (AP) -- India's coach Aunshuman Gaekwad admitted the team's hopes of winning the third test against New Zealand were all but gone after his bowlers failed to dislodge a stubborn New Zealand batting lineup Tuesday.
Gaekwad blamed his bowlers for giving a lot of width on both sides of the wicket and felt the game slipped away from his side after it conceded 127 runs in the post-lunch session without taking a wicket.
Gaekwad said there was a remote possibility that India might chase any target on the last day but depended on how quickly his bowlers could run through the New Zealand lower-order.
