Chuni Goswami, the former first-class cricketer, passed away on Thursday (April 30), aged 82. The former Bengal all-rounder was suffering from long-term ailments related to sugar and prostrate, and passed away due to a cardiac arrest.

Goswami played 46 first-class matches, picking up 47 wickets at 24.08 and scoring 1592 runs at 28.42. He also led Bengal in the 1971-72 Ranji Trophy final. However, his most notable exploits came while playing for a combined East and Central Zone team in December 1966, when he took eight wickets to defeat Garry Sober's West Indies - a team comprising of Clive Lloyd, Wes Hall, Charlie Griffith, Seymour Nurse and Rohan Kanhai among others.

His move to cricket took place in 1964 after finishing a decorated career in football, at the age of 27. Goswami, by then, had represented India in 50 international games. He even led the country to a Gold medal finish at the 1962 Asian Games.
