The next decade....what's in store?

Very sad day in cricket...RIP Bob Woolmer

Link

Who would have thought that less than 24 hours after sitting in a press conference with us journalists after losing horribly to minnows Ireland on Saturday, Pakistan's coach Bob Woolmer would be dead?

No one.

He was found unconscious in the bathroom of his room at the Jamaica Pegasus hotel this morning, by the housekeeping lady who went to clean his room. He was taken to hospital and never regained consciousness. The press release said there was blood and vomit. There are also reports that he had a medical condition. An autopsy will be done.

This casts a pall of gloom over what is supposed to be a happy exciting World Cup, since it is being held in the lands of Happiness.

Hope Bob has found his happiness after the stress of coaching the very unpredictable Pakistan team. Rest In Peace.

That's one of the photos I took of him at the press conference.
