Australian allrounder Andrew Symonds passed away in a horrific car accident near the outskirts of the city of Townsville on Saturday night, the North Queensland Police confirmed.
The 46-year-old represented Australia in 26 Tests and 198 ODIs from 1998 to 2009.
Symonds is the second famous Aussie cricketer to pass away in 2022 following the demise of leg-spinner Shane Warne, who died earlier this year in March.
The Cricket fraternity mourns Symonds’ sudden demise.
Vale Andrew Symonds.

Have had the privilege to work with some “big names” in the IPL,as well as a couple of “big characters “. Andrew Symmonds was a fierce competitor and generous teammate. Arguably the greatest all-round fielder ever, on top of his contribution with both bat n ball. #RIPRoy pic.twitter.com/fhDDDIRWD1
