A wonderful man who will be sorely missed. A true Kent legend!

This year marks 30 years since the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda.

Beginning in April 1994, in 100 days approximately 1 million Tutsis and moderate Hutus were murdered.

Despite its colossal scale, the genocide was carried out almost entirely by hand. #Kwibuka30

One of our greatest-ever spinners and a true legend of the game.

Rest in peace, Derek ❤️

#EnglandCricket

In 1968, England were set to beat Australia on Day Five and draw the series 1-1.

But after a flood at the Oval that spectators helped clear up, there was just 75 minutes left and five wickets required.

Step forward a certain D Underwood. RIP Deadly Derek ❤️
