Good man gone.
Never recovered from the stroke
RIP
SO does this mean EMIR will stop posting?
Nanan was a staple of Shell Shield competitions throughout my childhood.
Brings back very fond memories of transistor radios peeled to my ear and hiding the sun from my eyes at Bourda.
RIP.

Extending condolences to Nanans family, Lara said he will always have fond memories, not only for Nanans love, passion and dedication as a player and administrator, but for the integral role he played in his own career. We spent many enjoyable moments in the dressing room. My greatest memories will have to be the countless battles we had in the nets against each other. It always felt like I was in school when facing his prodigiously turning off breaks. I learnt a lot about the art of playing spin from Rangy. I think he enjoyed bowling to me and I definitely enjoyed batting against and learning from him.
Lara noted that up to recently Nanan was a regular face at matches in the Oval. He shared his vision freely to all the cricketers with whom he came into contact. We are all better players and individuals because of him, and the wisdom he so freely and readily imparted. We will miss him. I will miss him.

Nanan has an interesting story. I heard an old interview today with him.
He started playing cricket as a pacer. He was selected for a WI youth team as a fast bowler, also on the team was one Michael Holding. This was in 1972.
He used to practice off spin in the nets though, and after opening the bowling, he would come on later in the innings and bowl spin, and sometimes one over to the next he would change styles.
A lot of his early success was from bowling fast off spin
