Short answer:
On the day Sunil Gavaskar was born, Nan-kaka noticed a little hole near the top of Gavaskar’s left ear lobe.
Next day, apparently after babies were given their baths, Gavaskar got exchanged with a fisherwoman’s baby but this hole on his ear lobe helped in finding him back.
Details:
In his autobiography Sunny Days, Sunil Gavaskar mentions following:
I may never have become a cricketer and this book would certainly not have been written, if an eagle-eyed relation, Mr. Narayan Masurekar, had not come into my life the day I was born (July 10, 1949). It seems that Nan-kaka (as I call him), who had come to see me in hospital on my first day in this world, noticed a little hole near the top of my left ear lobe.
The next day he came again and picked up the baby lying on the crib next to my mother. To his utter horror, he discovered that the baby did not have the hole on the left ear lobe. A frantic search of all the cribs in the hospital followed, and I was eventually located sleeping blissfully beside a fisherwoman, totally oblivious of the commotion I had caused! The mix-up, it appears, followed after the babies had been given their baths.
Providence had helped me to retain my true identity, and, in the process, charted the course of my life. I have often wondered what would have happened if nature had not marked me out, by giving me that small hole on my left ear lobe; and if Nan-kaka had not noticed this abnormality. Perhaps, I would have grown up to be an obscure fisherman, toiling somewhere along the west coast. And what about the baby who, for a spell, took m place? I do not know if he is interested in cricket, or whether he will ever read this book. I can only hope that, if he does, he will start taking a little more interest in Sunil Gavaskar.
