Reveals the reasons behind his signing for Kerry Packer’s World Series Cricket and the England rebel side to South Africa in 1982 and the controversy that ensued
Examines his unique style of bowling and why he was so destructive on certain types of pitch
Celebrates Underwood’s huge contribution to the great Kent side of the 1970s
Covers Underwood’s committee and charity work in retirement, culminating in his presidency of MCC
