'''Dinkar Balwant Deodhar''' (14 January 1892 – 24 August 1993) was an Indian [[cricket]]er who played [[first-class cricket]] from 1911 to 1948.

== Cricket career ==
Deodhar was born in [[Poona]] (now Pune), [[British India]]. He was a professor of [[Sanskrit]] at [[Sir Parshurambhau College|Pune College]].<ref>{{cite web |last1=Krishnan |first1=Sankhya |title=Deodhar: Professor Emeritus of Indian cricket |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/story/85478.html |website=Cricinfo |date=24 August 2000|access-date=7 July 2019}}</ref>

Popularly known as the Grand Old Man of Indian Cricket, Deodhar was an aggressive right-hand batsman and a [[List of cricket terms|leg-break]] bowler. He captained [[Maharashtra cricket team|Maharashtra]] in [[Ranji Trophy]] matches from 1939 to 1941. In his first-class career, he played 81 matches, scoring 4,522 runs at an [[Batting average (cricket)|average]] of 39.32 with a highest score of 246.<ref>{{cite web |title=D. B. Deodhar |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/player/28036.html |website=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=7 July 2019}}</ref>

Deodhar was Vice-President of the [[Board of Control for Cricket in India]], the President of the [[Maharashtra Cricket Association]], and also a [[India national cricket team selectors|national team selector]]. The [[Deodhar Trophy]], a limited overs inter-zonal cricket tournament played in India since 1973, is named after him. In 1996, [[India Post]] issued a commemorative stamp in his honour. A statue of Deodhar was unveiled at Pune's Sahara cricket stadium in 2012.{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}

Like [[Bill Ashdown]], Deodhar is one of the few people known to have played first-class cricket both before the [[First World War]] and after the [[Second World War]], having played in the [[Bombay Triangular]] in 1911 and the [[Ranji Trophy]] in 1946.<ref>{{cite web |date=11 March 2017|last1=Coverdale |first1=Brydon |title=It takes a rare cricketer to reach a century, not just make one |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/18876267/brydon-coverdale-100th-birthdays-tom-pritchard-jack-laver |website=Cricinfo |access-date=7 July 2019}}</ref> In a Ranji Trophy game against [[Nawanagar cricket team|Nawanagar]] in 1944, he scored [[Century (cricket)|centuries]] in both innings, helping his team win.<ref>{{Cricketarchive|ref=Archive/Scorecards/17/17444.html|name=Maharashtra v Nawanagar
