England And Kent Legend, Derek Underwood Dies Aged 78
Underwood, also known by his nickname "Deadly," was one of the first 55 people to be admitted into the International Cricket Council Hall of Fame when it opened for business in 2009. In addition to serving as president of the Marylebone Cricket Club in 2009, Underwood was granted an MBE in 1981.
Underwood remains the sixth-highest wicket-taker for England in Test cricket, and also the top spinner, ahead of Graeme Swann (255). He played 26 matches in One-Day Internationals (ODIs) between 1973 and 1982, including two in the first World Cup in 1975, where he claimed 32 wickets at 22.93.
