Roy Dias was the most stylish batsman of his era. Better to watch than most Indian batsman of that time, may be barring Mohinder Amarnath. Luv from Kerala.
Absolutely a gentleman cricketer, my hero in childhood, still he is my first choice. SL is very unfortunate to have such a corrupted cricket board chairman and officials those who never ever wanted to maintain the brand of cricket Legend Roy and his generation players endorsed with the class , commitment and sacrifices. You will be remembered for whole world until game of cricket is prevailed. My school bag and cricket bat was decorated with the Astra margarine sticker that was carried your photo graph in early and mid 80’s. Ancho pocket calandra with your photo was lasted with me among my important documents until I let the country as an adult. ❤❤❤❤
I too has seen him batting him at the ground, he used to spread cricketing roses whenever he walked to the wicket, amazing beauty... of batsmanship....He was never second to his counterparts such as great Gavaskar, Miandad, Abbas, .. and many more If my memory was correct in that 1984/85 Bensn & Hedges triangulr series he scored most runs among all Ausi & WL batsmen, against the best ever and mightiest bowling combination world has ever seen including Garner, Holding & Marshal ... Wish you long healthy life Roy...Cricketing Candy...
It was always a treat to watch Roy Dias's batting.. I still vividly recall Roy's partnership with Duleep Mendis at Asgiriya (guess with India) 39 years ago in Kandy. So far I haven't seen a SL batsmen with the kind of style that Roy had had.. Only today I could guess that his 'Top Hand Elbow' over the head approach brought about his unique style! High time SL cricket administration use RD's talent for the betterment of our cricket.
Gentlemens and now we do not have gentlemans like mr Roy , Mr Roshan and other players. Now we have all the rubbish people playing cricket. Respect Mr Roy

When the all-time cricketing greats like Sir Viv Richards and Sunil Gavaskar say they are fans of Roy Dias, there's no other better compliment.

One of the stylist batsman and brilliant cover fielder. Not sure SLC has given his due recognition and taken his services to our country?
