Bob Willis's contribution to that famous win at Headingly is often overlooked. His eight wickets finished the job that Botham's epic innings had started.
RIP to one of the greats of English cricket. |

RIP Bob Willis. That was the best spell of fast bowling I've ever seen.
He was also part of a great double act with Charles Colville on Sky Sports over many years,always voicing his forthright opinions. |
