On 4 July 1845, four young Cambridge graduates dined at the Blenheim Hotel in Bond Street and founded I Zingari — Italian for 'the gypsies' — as a wandering amateur cricket club without a home ground. The first such club in cricket, I Zingari pioneered the country-house touring tradition that became the dominant form of amateur cricket for the next century.
