Pakistan coach Bob Woolmer died Sunday, he was 58.
Woolmer was taken to hospital after he was found unconscious in his hotel room, according to officials. "We have taken Bob Woolmer to the hospital and he is in the emergency ward. We don't know anything more at the moment," Pakistan team media manager Pervez Mir said, according to the Pakistan paper, The News.
A later flash confirmed that he was dead. "Doctors have pronounced Bob Woolmer dead. Bob has passed away and it is very shocking news to all of the team and the team management". "Bob's family and wife were informed by the management about his condition when he was brought to hospital."
Pakistan were knocked out of the ICC Cricket World Cup on Saturday after a shock three-wicket defeat to Ireland. Woolmer was last seen in public when he addressed the post-match media conference at the Sabina Park ground. Ironically, he talked of the stresses of the coaching job. "Doing it internationally, it takes a toll on you, the endless travelling and the non-stop living out of hotels."
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Bob Woolmer's family. He was a great coach and behind many West Indies downfalls over the years.
