David Lawrence, First British-born Black Player To Play For England, Diagnosed With Motor Neuron Disease
“We are saddened to learn of David’s diagnosis. He embodies everything great about our game and all of our hearts go out to ‘Syd’ and his family,” said the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) in a post on X.
Lawrence played 280 matches for Gloucestershire between 1981 and 1997 and picked 625 wickets during his career at Nevil Road. Motor neuron disease is a rare, degenerative condition that affects the brain and nerves, and as of now, there is no cure.
