The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Roger Binny mourned the demise of former left-arm spinner Dilip Doshi, who passed away at the age of 77 on Monday, and said he was a true artist of spin bowling who inspired a generation of cricketers with his skill and dedication.

Doshi, made his Test debut for India at the age of 32 in 1979 and went on to represent the country in 33 Tests and 15 ODIs between 1979 and 1983. Known for his classical left-arm spin, he claimed 114 Test wickets, including six five-wicket hauls, and 22 ODI wickets.
His career also saw him excel in first-class cricket, where he amassed 898 wickets from 238 matches.
“The BCCI stands in solidarity with his family, loved ones and the cricketing community in mourning this irreparable loss,” the BCCI said in a statement.
