The cricketing world dealt with a major shock recently when Shane Warne, on March 4, died of a heart attack. Now in another shocking news, Andrew Symonds has passed away at the age of 46 in a single-vehicle car crash in Townsville, Queensland on Saturday as reported by multiple media outlets.

“Early information indicates, shortly after 11pm the car was being driven on Hervey Range Road, near Alice River Bridge when it left the roadway and rolled,” the police statement confirmed.

‘Emergency services attempted to revive the 46-year-old driver and sole occupant, however, he died of his injuries,’ Queensland Police said.
