Former England fast bowler Graham Dilley has died aged 52 after a short illness.
The former Kent and Worcestershire bowler played 41 Tests and 36 one-day internationals for England during a 10-year international career which encompassed two Ashes series victories.
Dilley took 138 Test wickets at 29.78 for his country but his best remembered contribution to the England cause came with the bat – supporting Ian Botham in a 117-run partnership which helped England to a famous Ashes Test win over Australia at Headingley in 1981.

Whilst not a household name like Ian Botham, I certainly remember watching him in the test matches and to die so young as well
RIP Graham
