NEW DELHI: Olympian and India's 1970 Asian Games 4x100m relay bronze-winning team member Kenneth Powell died on Sunday in Bengaluru, the Athletics Federation of India said. He was 82.

Powell was one of the top sprinters of the country in the nineteen sixties. He overcame the disappointment of failing to make it to the 1962 Asian Games and played a key role in the Indian 4x100m relay team reaching to the semifinal of the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo.
