New Delhi [India], September 25 (ANI): As legendary India spinner Bishan Singh Bedi turned 75 on Saturday, current head coach Ravi Shastri extended birthday greetings saying the slow left-arm orthodox spinner had one of the best bowling actions in the game.
"Many happy returns of the day, @BishanBedi. When bowling, poetry in motion, easily one of the best bowling actions the game as seen. God bless you, Sir," tweeted Shastri.
Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar also took to Twitter to send birthday wishes to Bedi.
"Happy 75th birthday @BishanBedi paaji! I got to spend a lot of time with you during my initial tours of England & New Zealand and you always had so many stories to share. Enjoyed listening to each one of them. Wishing you a wonderful year ahead full of good health & happiness," tweeted Tendulkar.
