He was best known as an unorthodox all-rounder played 29 One Day Internationals (ODI) for England. He also played English county cricket for Sussex, Warwickshire and Somerset.

Dermott Reeve loved to extemporize.

Dermott Reeve played in the 1992 World Cup final against Pakista at MCG. He also played in 1996 World Cup, playing (on the losing side) in the final in the former tournament. Though, he never scored highly in ODIs, and his batting average would have been significantly lower, but for his high proportion of not-out innings.

Reeve was born in Hong Kong in 1963 to parents who were working in the territory as teachers. His mother, Monica, later served as a scorer for a number of England Test matches.
