Bowler killed by horrified cricketer as he hits ball into his head during match

A pensioner died from fatal injuries after being hit on the head by a cricket ball during a match.

David Wilcockson, 71, was bowling at a ground in Cranleigh, Surrey when the ball struck him on the head.

Players battled in vain to revive him after he slumped on the pitch unconscious and he was taken by air ambulance to King's College Hospital in London. Mr Wilcockson was in a coma for 13 days, but died in hospital on June 1.
