Tributes have been paid to the Australian cricketer and commentator Richie Benaud, who has died at the age of 84 from skin cancer.

The leg-spinner captained Australia 28 times before retiring in 1964 and turning his arm to broadcasting, delighting fans across the world with his warm and witty delivery for more than four decades.

Comedian Rory Bremner said: "Every comment was rolled around his tongue like a lozenge."
