In the book Cricket The Game of Life: Every reason to celebrate by Scyld Berry, published in 2015 by Hodder and Stoughton in Great Britain, it is stated: "Before he died in 1903, Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata went to America and met President Theodore Roosevelt, to ask for American experts to go to India to do geological research and identify the best location for a steel plant.
