Former England captain Bob Willis dies
London, Dec 5: Former England captain Bob Willis has died, his family announced on Wednesday. He was 70. In a career that spanned 90 Test matches between 1971 and 1984, Willis took 325 wickets. He was England's all time highest wicket taker at the time of his retirement and only Australia's Dennis Lillee had taken more wickets in the longest format of the game at the time.
