5 most articulate and eloquent Indian cricketers of all time

#2 Bishan Singh Bedi

He might not have done much commentary on radio or television but as far as articulation or eloquence is concerned, there are very few Indian cricketers who are equal to the former spin great Bishan Singh Bedi. What makes him such a fascinating character is his outspoken nature and the ability to the cut to the heart of the matter very very quickly.

Bedi is that rare individual, who might be wrong from time to time but is never in doubt about his convictions. For instance, he had an extreme dislike of Sri Lankan ace Muttiah Muralitharan’s bowling action and promptly called him a chucker. However, in his inimitable colourful style, he called him a ‘javelin thrower’. His grasp of the language and his ability to deliver such lines with ease makes him one of India’s most eloquent cricketers.
