Ex- Aussie Test Cricketer Damien Martyn Admitted to Hospital and in Induced Coma After Meningitis Diagnosed.
The ex-Aussie cricket star Damien Martyn is in hospital and placed in an induced coma after being diagnosed with meningitis.
Serious Condition Revealed
The 54-year-old “is facing the battle of his life”, according to former AFL player Brad Hardie, who disclosed Martyn’s condition on Tuesday.
“Let’s hope he can recover because it’s really serious,” Hardie said.
His condition remains serious after falling ill on Boxing Day and transported to a hospital in Queensland, according to family sources.
Understanding Meningitis
Meningitis is swelling of the protective layers that cover the brain and spinal cord.
An Illustrious Playing Career
Martyn is considered one of Australia’s finest batsmen, featuring in 67 Tests and scoring 4,406 Test runs for an average of 46.37 from 1992 and 2006.
The right-hand batter’s unbeaten 88 in the 2003 World Cup final – with a broken finger – helped Australia secure victory over India.
Martin retired suddenly during the 2005-06 Ashes series in England after struggling in the opening two Tests.
Sporting Community Reacts
Ex-colleague Darren Lehmann encouraged Martyn to “stay strong” online, as the sporting world started sending support.
“Lots of love and prayers sending your way . Stay strong and fight legend . Love to the family.”
