'''Dilip Narayan Sardesai''' ({{audio|Dilip Sardesai.ogg|pronunciation}}; 8 August 1940 – 2 July 2007) was an Indian international [[cricket]]er. He played [[Test cricket|Tests]] for the [[Indian national cricket team|Indian national team]] as a [[Batting (cricket)|batsman]], the first [[Goa]]-born cricketer to play for India, and was often regarded as one of India's best batsmen against [[Spin bowling|spin]], although Indian batsmen have been known to play better against spin.<ref>{{cite news |title =Spin vs Pace:Graham Thorpe outlines on how to tackle spin|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/av/cricket/41637138|access-date=5 August 2018 |work=BBC|date=4 August 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=India Test batsman Sardesai dies |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/other_international/india/6263002.stm |access-date=3 July 2007 |work=BBC |date=2 July 2007}}</ref>

Sardesai grew up in a [[Gaud Saraswat Brahmin]] family<ref>{{Cite web|date=8 August 2015|title=Watch: Rajdeep Sardesai's take on his father Dilip Sardesai|url=https://www.crictracker.com/watch-rajdeep-sardesais-take-on-his-father-dilip-sardesai/|access-date=12 January 2022|website=CricTracker|language=en}}</ref> of [[Margão]], a town in the erstwhile [[Portuguese India]] (in the present-day [[States and union territories of India|Indian State]] of [[Goa]]).

Sardesai made his first mark in cricket in the inter-university [[Rohinton Baria Trophy]] in 1959–60 where he made 435 runs at an [[Batting average (cricket)|average]] of 87. He would later recall that he was called up for the trials for the Combined Universities team that was to play the [[Pakistani cricket team in India in 1960–61|touring Pakistan side in 1960–61]]. Impressed by his technique, [[Lala Amarnath]], the [[India national cricket team selectors|chairman of selectors]], drafted him into the team. Sardesai made the playing XI, thus making his [[First-class cricket|first-class]] debut, against Pakistan in [[Pune]] in November 1960. Sardesai went on to make 87 in 194 minutes in his only innings of the match, while also taking [[Hanif Mohammad]]'s catch with his [[Fielding (cricket)|fielding]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Indian Universities v Pakistanis, Pakistan in India 1960/61 |url=https://cricketarchive.com:80/Archive/Scorecards/24/24505.html |website=CricketArchive |access-date=8 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180101120242/http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/24/24505.html |archive-date=1 January 2018 |url-status=live }}</ref> In his next game, playing for [[Board President's XI (India)|Board President's XI]] against the same Pakistan side prior to the Fourth Test of the tour, he scored an unbeaten [[Century (cricket)|century]] (106 in 260 minutes),<ref>{{cite web |title=Indian Board President's XI v Pakistanis, Pakistan in India 1960/61 |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/24/24604.html |website=CricketArchive |access-date=8 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160315205539/http://www.cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/24/24604.html |archive-date=15 March 2016}}</ref><ref name="Wisden2015"/> putting together a 134-run [[Partnership (cricket)|stand]] with [[Vijay Mehra (Indian cricketer)|Vijay Mehra]] for the third wicket.<ref>{{cite news |title=Another Draw in Pakistan's Tour |work=The Indian Express |date=10 January 1961 |page=10}}</ref>

==Test career==
Sardesai had little to show in first class cricket in 1961–62, except for a 281 against [[Gujarat cricket team|Gujarat]] in a university match. He was included in the India team for the Second Test of [[English cricket team in India, Pakistan and Ceylon in 1961–62|England's India tour]], in [[Green Park Stadium|Kanpur]], in December 1961. Leading up to the Test, he was described as an "aggressive strokeplayer".<ref>{{cite news |title=India Fields Strong Batting Side |newspaper=The Indian Express |date=1 December 1961 |page=10}}</ref> In his debut innings Sardesai made 28 before he was out [[hit wicket]] while trying to late-[[Cut (cricket)|cut]] spinner [[Tony Lock]] through the vacant [[Slip (cricket)|slip]] region to the [[Glossary of cricket terms#third man|third man]] boundary. His innings lasted 108 minutes.<ref>{{cite news|title=Umrigar Still at Crease with Century |newspaper=The Indian Express |date=3 December 1961 |page=8}}</ref> Sardesai toured the West Indies later in the season, playing in three of the five Tests. He was captain [[Nari Contractor]]'s opening partner in a tour game against [[Barbados cricket team|Barbados]] that saw the former hit on the head by a [[Charlie Griffith]] delivery after Sardesai had lost his wicket.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Williamson |first1=Martin |title=The bouncer that ended a career |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/story/807661.html |work=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=8 August 2018 |language=en |date=6 December 2014 |archive-date=8 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180808203136/http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/story/807661.html |url-status=live }}</ref> Contractor's injury created a place for Sardesai in the Test team. He scored 31 and 60 in the Test at [[Kensington Oval|Bridgetown]], opening the batting, but was dropped after he was dismissed for a [[Pairs in Test and first-class cricket|pair]] in the following match. Sardesai scored 449 runs in the five Test series against England in 1963–64 with 79 and 87 in the Fifth and final Test as the most notable performances, helping India to secure a draw after being made to [[Follow-on|follow on]].

Against [[New Zealand cricket team|New Zealand]] in 1964–65, Sardesai scored a double century at [[Brabourne Stadium|Bombay]] and a very fast hundred that set up a win at [[Feroz Shah Kotla|Delhi]]. New Zealand had forced India to follow on at Bombay, but Sardesai's unbeaten double-century nearly won the match for India. He played against West Indies in 1966–67, and then toured England in 1967, where he injured himself on a staircase in the pavilion at [[Lord's]] and missed the First Test at Headingley. He recovered to appear in the Second Test back at Lord's, but a broken finger sustained during that match ended his tour. He was dropped after two Tests in Australia in 1967–68 due to injury and a series of failures.

Sardesai's career had seemed over until he was picked for the Indian tour of West Indies in 1970–71. In the First Test at [[Sabina Park|Kingston]], India lost the first five wickets for 75, before Sardesai hit 212 runs and took the total to 387. His 112 in the next Test at [[Queen's Park Oval|Port of Spain]] led to India's first victory over [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]]. This innings made him the first Indian to score a double century outside India. He hit another 150 in the Fourth Test after India were 70 for 6. His 642 runs in the series stood as an Indian record for five days before [[Sunil Gavaskar]] went past it{{ref|642}}. It was India's first victory over West Indies in a series and [[Vijay Merchant]], the chairman of selectors, called Sardesai the "renaissance man of Indian cricket".<ref>{{cite web |last1=Ramchand |first1=Partab |author-link1=Partab Ramchand |title=The Renaissance man of Indian cricket turns 60 |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/story/84906.html |work=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=8 August 2018 |language=en |date=8 August 2000 |archive-date=8 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180808172451/http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/story/84906.html |url-status=live }}</ref> Sardesai scored 54 and 40 in the Indian win over England at [[the Oval]] in 1971, which led to another series win. His career ended one Test later, and he retired from all cricket at the end of the 1972–73 season.

Sardesai played for [[Mumbai cricket team|Bombay]] in the Ranji Trophy in 13 seasons, between 1961 and 1973,<ref>{{cite web |title=First-Class Matches Played by Dilip Sardesai (179) |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/1/1162/First-Class_Matches.html |website=CricketArchive |access-date=8 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131022100318/http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/1/1162/First-Class_Matches.html |archive-date=22 October 2013}}</ref> including 10 finals, and never finished on the losing side. He scored 199 against Rajasthan in the 1967 final. In the semi-final against the same team two years later, he was [[Run out#Vinoo Mankad|Mankaded]] by [[Kailash Gattani]]. Sardesai's final first-class match was the famous Ranji Trophy final against [[Tamil Nadu cricket team|Madras]] in 1972–73, which ended on the first ball of the third day.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/33/33151.html|title=CA details|website=CricketArchive|access-date=25 February 2020}}</ref> Sardesai scored over 1,000 first-class runs in three domestic seasons, with a career best of 1,429 runs in 1964–65, which included his highest first-class score of 222, for [[Associated Cement Company cricket team|Associated Cement Company]] against [[Indian Starlets]] in the final of the [[Moin-ud-Dowlah Gold Cup Tournament]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Moin-ud-Dowlah Gold Cup Tournament 1964/65 (Final) |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/27/27263.html |access-date=8 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303225902/http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/27/27263.html |archive-date=3 March 2016}}</ref>

After retirement from cricket, Sardesai would split his time between his residences in Mumbai and Goa. In June 2007, he was admitted to a hospital in Mumbai for a chest infection.
