MUMBAI: It’s been a month since Bishan Singh Bedi has passed away, but the former India captain keeps getting remembered by those who played with him. On Friday, at the Reliance Digital presents 92nd annual prize distribution function of The Times Cricket Shield for the year 2022-2023, former India left-arm seamer Karsan Ghavri narrated an interesting incident while playing under Bedi’s captaincy, when he took five wickets bowling left-arm spin, much to Bedi’s surprise.
“I was basically a left-arm seamer. Out of my 109 Test wickets, only eight have come bowling left-arm spin. During a Test match against Tony Greig’s England at the Wankhede in 1976, Bedi, who was the India captain, went inside the dressing room for a massage or something.
