This question was asked for the price value of INR 7 crore, the daunting question saw Raj quitting the game and after quitting the game, Raj completed the formalities by guessing the name of Commandur Rangachari as the correct answer. Fortunately for him, it was the wrong answer.

Who was the Indian bowler off whom Australian legend Don Bradman got a single to reach his 100th first-class century?

Later, it was revealed that the right answer was Gogumal Kishenchand. Back in November 1947, an Australian XI had hosted an Indian XI in Sydney. While the Indian XI won the match, the match is mostly remembered for Bradman scoring his 100th first-class century by running a single off Kishenchand.
