Wow. Amazing that she's come out and said it. Brave.

Not another one of those 'passed away suddenly oh and here's a mental health emergency number but we won't say he killed himself' articles.

Fancy scoring 556 and staring down the barrel of an innings defeat

Side note - not a lot of soap on either side
