Bob Willis, legendary England fast bowler, dies aged 70 - chairman - 12-04-2019
Bob Willis, the former England captain and fast bowler who will be forever synonymous with England's 1981 Ashes victory, has died at the age of 70 after a short battle with cancer.
Willis claimed 325 wickets in a 90-Test career that began on the Ashes tour in 1970-71, when he was called up as a 21-year-old as a late replacement for the injured Alan Ward and played a full role in a famous 2-0 series win.
