Former BBC TV cricket commentator and Warwickshire seam bowler Jack Bannister has died at the age of 85.

He took 1,198 first-class wickets during a 368-match county career from 1950 to 1968 before joining the BBC.

Initially a summariser, he became a commentator in 1988 and remained with the corporation until 1999.
