sad day for kent cricket fans after fast bowler graham dilley dies at age of 52
i remember seeing graham play for kent on a few occasions and he was part of the ashes winning team with ian botham in the 80,s
Very sad news, it seems he died after a very short battle against cancer.

sorry to hear that, i remember him clearly giving the aussies a lot to think about with his pace bowling.
i seem to remember him doing a bit with the bat too in that famous headingley test match when bob willis then took 8 wickets to win the match.

I remember him well from those days too Howard. Very good player in a time that was something of a heydey for cricket. Good times and great stars. Sad to see so many people dying so young these days..or relatively young. Only 52. Shame.
