Breaking: Former Australian cricket captain Bob Simpson dies aged 89

Australian cricket is mourning one of the country's greatest figures in the sport — former Test batsman, captain and coach Bob Simpson, who has died at the age of 89.

Former Australian men's Test cricket captain Bob Simpson has died aged 89.

The cricketer, who was born in Sydney in 1936, played 62 Tests for Australia, scoring 4,689 runs — with 10 centuries and 27 50s — and taking 71 wickets.

He made his Test debut against South Africa in Johannesburg in 1957, and his first century came in an Ashes Test at Old Trafford in 1964 — Simpson went on to score 311.

Great effort from Australia to finish on a high. South Africa’s consistency in recent series is impressive too—both sides showing their strengths.
