Former England fast bowler Peter Lever, who helped his country win the 1970-71 Ashes series in Australia, has died aged 84.

Lever took 41 wickets in 17 Tests and also featured in 10 one-day internationals, including the historic inaugural match in the format against Australia in 1971.

Lever, who also starred for English county Lancashire, made his Test debut for Raymond Illingworth's England team during the 1970-71 tour to Australia.
