    Ths is so sad. He was a coaching legend and truly global: born in India, English player, Pakistani and South African Coach. True, Pakistan's elimination was shocking, but he didn't deserve to die this way, especially after such a worth career.
    I think he died of the enormous stress, as he was already somewhat weak. It's so sad when it becomes so much more of a game to people.

    It's terrible, though. Circket is supposed to be the 'gentleman's game'. It's probably some of the evil betting mafia. Methinks half of what happens in cricket these days is a result of the Evil Betting Mafia. >.<

    I was really shocked the first time I got the news, but it was nothing compared to the one I got when I learned that he was murdered!!! RIP Bob Woolmer

    Isn't it confirmed this is a murder, wasn't he strangled? That's what I've heard.
