Derek Underwood, a slow left-arm orthodox bowler, represented the England cricket team in 86 Tests between 1966 and 1982. In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "five-for" or "fifer") refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded as a notable achievement, and as of 2015, only 42 bowlers have taken at least 15 five-wicket hauls at international level in their cricketing careers. In Test cricket, Underwood took 297 wickets, including 17 five-wicket hauls. The Wisden Cricketers' Almanack named him one of their cricketers of the year in 1969, and in 2009 was one of the 55 inaugural members of the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.
