Alec Bedser

Sir Alec Bedser, a legendary Cricketing figure from the post World-War-II era is no more.

A man who secured a spot in Sir Don Bradman's fantasy XI. A man who figured in Wisden's Greatest Post-war England XI.

A man who claimed Don Bradman 6 times, Arthur Morris 18 times, Neil Harvey 12 times and Lindsey Hassett 9 times in his career.

A man who retired from Test cricket with the record for the most number of wickets.

Until yesterday, he was the last man alive to have taken Don Bradman's wicket.
