One of Dilip Doshi`s memorable performances came when he bagged five wickets in India`s Test triumph at the MCG in 1981, when the visitors defended the target. He played with a fractured toe and was literally unplayable on the MCG track. Doshi, Karsan Ghavri and Kapil Dev were the players who won the game for India

Former Team India spinner Dilip Doshi, who made his path despite the Indian team having the likes of Bishan Singh Bedi, passed away due to cardiac arrest in London on Monday, the Saurashtra Cricket Association said.
Making his Test debut in 1979 after Bedi`s retirement, Doshi played his last of the 33 matches in 1983.
In those matches, he claimed 114 wickets with six five-wicket hauls and was exceptional at home during the first three seasons. He took just 28 Test matches to reach the feat of 100 wickets.
