Industrial Economics graduate and International Cricketer, Deryck Murray, was vice- captain of the historic West Indies side that won the first Cricket World Cup in 1975, only three years after graduating from Nottingham. Murray was the man who stood between Pakistan and victory in the virtual Quarter-Final of the 1975 World Cup. In chasing the demanding target, Murray, who had a reputation for keeping his cool in tight situations, was quickly running out of batting partners but with 16 challenging overs still left to bat, Murray ensured that he and Andy Roberts maintained their last-wicket partnership to chase down the winning total and help to secure the World Cup for the West-Indies.
