The good news for his millions of fans globally is that he is now back home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>A former India captain, 74-year-old Bedi returned home from Delhi&#39;s Sir Ganga Ram Hospital on Friday evening, and that was a big relief for his family.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;He was back home last evening. He is talking, but little -- of course, naturally he is a bit weak. It will take about a week for him to settle down. Doctors have said that he may take a month to make full recovery,&quot; a source close to Bedi told.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Bedi has not been keeping well for some time. First, he slipped and twisted his ankle at his Delhi residence. That was followed by other illnesses which needed a few operations.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after:always\"><span style=\"display:none\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>The left-arm spinner also underwent a successful heart bypass surgery recently. He then underwent an operation to remove blood clotting in his brain. He also suffered a paralytic attack.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, much like he was never afraid to flight the ball to batsmen, Bedi has sustained the operations and is responding to the treatment doctors have prescribed, said a family member.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In 67 Tests, Bedi bagged 266 wickets with his flight and guile. And in 10 one-day internationals, he captured seven wickets. His international career lasted more than 12 years, between 1966 and 1979.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In the domestic circuit, Bedi represented Northern Punjab, Delhi, and Northamptonshire in the English county competitions. He began his first-class career with Northern Punjab in 1962 and shifted to Delhi in 1968.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Bedi led Delhi to the national championship title by winning the Ranji Trophy in consecutive seasons, 1978-79 and 1979-80. He also lost two Ranji Trophy finals as Delhi captain, in 1976-77 and 1980-81.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>After retirement, Bedi, who always calls a spade a spade, also served as a national selector<\/p>\r\n",
