Poor fella feel sorry for family kind of puts a black mark on Ireland and Pakistans involvement in the tournament now. Plus some guy for Ireland died too but he was old and passed away no suspision involved.

very sad to hear of his death - was a great coach

if he was stangled it could become very interesting....

Ireland deserve some congratulations for beating his team though

Pakistan's cricket coach Bob Woolmer was murdered in his hotel room on Sunday after the team's World Cup shock defeat to Ireland, Jamaican police say.

A post-mortem examination established that the former England player had died as a result of "manual strangulation", police commissioner Lucius Thomas said.
