Indian cricket legend Bishan Singh Bedi has died at the age of 77 after a prolonged illness.

He was battling age-related illnesses and had undergone a few surgeries in recent years.

Bedi, regarded as one of the world’s finest ever spin bowlers, captained India in 22 of his 67 Tests and took 266 wickets.

He made his debut against West Indies in 1966 and played his last Test against England at The Oval in 1979.

Bedi also played English county cricket for Northamptonshire and finished his career with 1,560 first-class wickets, the highest by any Indian bowler.
