Garfield Sobers, the graceful West Indian cricketer whose world-record Test innings of 365 not out as a 21-year-old set him on the path to becoming arguably the sport’s greatest allrounder, has died.

The BCCI mourns the passing of Sir Garfield Sobers, a true icon of the game and one of cricket's greatest-ever all-rounders.

At ⁠county level, Sobers enjoyed a distinguished career with Nottinghamshire, scoring 7,041 runs, including 18 centuries, and taking 281 wickets.
