RIP Fardin (cricket player)

Thanks to skd we have this news... so how many others had heard?

EDIT: may this stand as a lasting tribute to his memory... maybe some sig\subtitle alteration would be appropriate to reflect the tragic developments?

It's just so tragic. I feel quite numb. All that potential gone in a flash.

My thoughts go to his family, can hardly imagine what they must be feeling like.

its wierd...never knew the lad, enjoyed reading some of the things he used to say, visited the website of the league he played in a couple of times to see if he was 'for real' etc....and yet I feel really sad right at this moment. My thoughts are with his family and friends

Really makes you think about life and stuff!!!!!

Because anyone with a heart feels sad when a young life is taken that doesn't deserve to be taken?

Really tragic news there - I can't quite believe it. We used to make fun of him from time to time, but we all knew he was a really good guy at heart, and clearly he was a very talented cricketer. A huge shock. Thoughts are with his family. RIP.
