A remarkable story in The Daily Telegraph of a man who put his approaching fifty ahead of the minor point that he was having a heart attack at the time.

"The old runs were a little bit lacking and I have been struggling to perform this season," he said. "But I was having a good game and found it too easy. I was getting sixes and fours and was feeling really good about my game. I think I was a bit of an idiot really. I should have stopped straight away because it could have finished me off there and then."
