    ECB Condoles Demise Of Former Batter Wayne Larkins

    Wales Cricket Board: The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Sunday that it was deeply saddened over the passing away of former batter Wayne Larkins, who died at the age of 71 after a short illness in University Hospital, Coventry.

    Affectionately known as 'Ned', Larkins represented England in 13 Tests and 25 ODIs between 1979 and 1991, including an appearance in the 1979 World Cup final, where the side lost to the West Indies.

    His most iconic moment as an England cricketer came in 1990, when he struck the winning runs at Sabina Park to seal a famous Test victory for his team over the West Indies. “Known for his powerful strokeplay and larger-than-life personality, Larkins was as beloved off the field as he was respected on it.”
