Ctrl+W also does the same (deletes word to left of cursor)

I also find these useful
CTRL+D - deletes character at cursor
ALT  +D  - deletes word to right of cursor
CTRL+A - moves cursor to beginning of line
CTRL+E - moves cursor to end of line
CTRL+F/B - Moves cursor forward/backward by one character
