Who was Douglas Nation?

Douglas Codrington Nation was a cricketer with but one first-class appearance to his name. This was the Ranji Trophy semi-final in 1941/42: for Northern India against Bombay, Nation batted at number eleven and did not bowl in either innings, in spite of the fact that seven of his team-mates did. With Aidan and Spencer Crawley, he holds the distinction of being part of the only set of two grandfathers and a grandson to have played the first-class game.
