    Sad to hear the passing today of Bob Willis. One of the best English bowlers in my lifetime.

    His 8 wickets in the famous Headingley Test match vuctory over the Aussies in 1981 is one of the best spells of seam bowling I have ever seen

    RIP Bob and deepest condolences to his family and friends

    Made himself into a legend with the headingley heroics, RIP.

    Great fast bowler for England and a great shame we cannot produce more fast bowlers in this day and age.
