Indian cricket fraternity mourns death of Dilip Doshi
A “heartbroken” Indian cricket fraternity came together in grief and reverence to pay tribute to former left-arm spinner Dilip Doshi, who died following a cardiac arrest in London.
Despite spending much of his early career in the shadow of the great Bishan Singh Bedi, Doshi carved a niche for himself with his unwavering resolve. He died at the age of 77 on Monday.
Leading the tributes for him was the great Sachin Tendulkar, who recalled his first meeting with the “warm-hearted” Doshi during a tour of the UK in 1990.
“I met Dilip bhai for the first time in the UK in 1990, and he bowled to me in the nets on that tour. He was really fond of me, and I reciprocated his feelings.
