    An England test spinning great has died

    An England test spinning great has died


    Derek Underwood, known in the cricketing world as "Deadly", has died aged 78.

    That footage came from figures of seven for 50 in his eighth of 86 tests.

    He spun England to victory - and a drawn 1968 Ashes series against Australia - on an uncovered Oval pitch after a rain delay which had spectators mopping the ground.

    The left-armer took 297 wickets at an average of 25.83.
