In another video posted by the same account, Saif Ali Khan is heard explaining the concept of cricket clubs and county teams to his son. He mentioned to Taimur that his great-grandfather had played for Worcestershire and his grandfather had captained Sussex. Saif's father, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium pace bowler. He made his first-class debut for Sussex in August 1957 at the age of 16 and also played for Oxford while he was studying there.
