Dreadful news. Very sad to hear that, here's hoping he gets better :(

Was just finding his feet in International cricket aswell.
 
Wow just seen this a minute ago, shocked! At least they've caught it before he's had an incident similar to Muamba but still awful news for the lad. Absolutely gutted for him, he's a top player and will be missed by Nottinghamshire and England.
 


That's a big shame. Gutted for the lad.

Great that it has been spotted before it's too late though. Calls for more cardiac screening in sports.
 
What an absolute bummer, he'd finally got a chance in the England team and he was just finding his feet in the international game. I wish him the best of health.
 
Mixed feelings.

Very sad end to a promising career, but thankfully they found it and the end to this story was not much, much worse.
 
Big blow for him and England, such a class Short Leg fielder. Better to find out now then collapsing 1/2 though a cricket match
