Former BCCI President Raj Singh Dungarpur died here on Saturday following protracted illness.
Affectionately called as 'Rajbhai' in the cricket fraternity, the 73-year-old Dungarpur, who was president of the Cricket Board for three years in the late 1990s, was suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
A bachelor from the Dungarpur royal family of Rajasthan, he was also a former first class cricketer, a former India team manager and ex-chairman of the senior selection panel.
A former President of the Cricket Club of India for 13 years before he took ill last year, Dungarpur died at his residence this morning.
