Graham Thorpe Seriously Ill in Hospital, Says PCA
Former England Batter Receiving Treatment
PCA Statement Highlights Thorpe's Unwell Condition
Former England and Surrey batter Graham Thorpe is currently receiving treatment in hospital after falling seriously ill, the Professional Cricketers Association (PCA) announced.
The 52-year-old, who played 100 Test matches for England over 12 years, had recently accepted the position of head coach for Afghanistan.
In a statement released through the PCA, Thorpe's family expressed concern over his condition, stating that he had "fallen unwell." The PCA has declined to provide further details about Thorpe's illness, citing the need for privacy.
Thorpe's illness has come as a shock to the cricket community. He is widely regarded as one of England's finest ever batters, having scored over 16,000 runs across all formats of the game. His experience and knowledge were highly valued in his coaching roles with England and Surrey.
The PCA's statement concluded by expressing support for Thorpe and his family, and asking for privacy to be respected during this difficult time.
