Cameron Green: Australia’s fast-bowling all-rounder Cameron Green has revealed about him managing to play professional cricket with a chronic kidney disease. He added that he was diagnosed with the condition on his birth, with doctors saying his life expectancy was just till 12 years.

"My parents got told when I was born that I had chronic kidney disease. Basically, there's no symptoms, it was just picked up through ultrasounds. Chronic kidney disease is basically a progressive disease of your kidney's health function."

"Unfortunately, mine doesn't filter the blood as well as other kidneys. They're at about 60% at the moment which is stage two. I consider myself very lucky that I'm not as affected physically by chronic kidney disease as other people who are affected by the same thing," said Green to Channel 7.
