Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
Amiss was a fluent ODI batsman, scoring 859 runs in 18 ODIs at an average of 47.72. Interestingly, Amiss is the first and one of the only two player(s) in the history of ODI cricket to have scored century on both debut as well as his last match.
His first-class record was nothing short of stellar - 40,000+ runs in a 27-year career.
After retirement from all forms of cricket, Amiss served Warwickshire as Chairman of the Cricket Committee. Later in 1992, he became an ECB selector.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Two great innings against West Indies, 262 not out to save the 1973-74 Kingston Test and 203 at The Oval in 1976, supplied ample evidence that Dennis Amiss lacked neither courage nor technique against fast bowling. In that Oval match Michael Holding took 14 wickets in an attack completed by Andy Roberts, Wayne Daniel and Van Holder. Strongly built, tireless and four-square at the crease, Amiss was harder to get out, once he had 40 on the board, than any batsman of his generation, including Geoff Boycott. Of Amiss's 11 Test hundreds, eight exceeded 150, a higher proportion even than that of Don Bradman. His power, timing and placement through extra cover and midwicket, his two great scoring areas, could sometimes make him uncontrollable. To the regret of his many admirers, however, Amiss's dismal record against Australia denied him acceptance as a top-ranking England batsman. Starting with a pair, at Old Trafford in 1968, and later running into Dennis Lillee and Jeff Thomson at their fastest, he made seven ducks in 21 innings against them, averaging 15.25. He did well in the early days of limited-overs internationals, scoring England's first ODI century and averaging 47.
