Tweet

This morning I was shocked to read the news that the famous and most loved cricket writer Peter Roebuck found dead in his hotel room in the Southern Sun Hotel Newlands in Cape Town, South Africa. He traveled extensively with Australian cricket team tours. I used to read and enjoy his writings on cricket. Most of the times he wrote on Australian cricket and other things too. He was one of those rare writers who could command love and respect from both critics and fans alike. And he was just 55 years old is what made this news shocking and stunning. Condolences to his family and friends.
