Namibia wicketkeeper dies on 15*

Namibia wicketkeeper-batsman Raymond van Schoor has died in Windhoek

at age 25, five days after suffering a stroke during a match.

Van Schoor was batting on 15 during Namibia's five-wicket win over Free State

in a CSA Provincial One-Day Challenge when he collapsed on field

and was taken by ambulance to a local hospital.

"Cricket in Namibia is most definitely in mourning today.

It was most certainly a shock that at 25, Raymond was taken from us.

His team-mates were all at his bedside yesterday and they've taken it very hard."

Van Schoor served as both vice-captain and captain for Namibia in the past :

leading a total of 40 times, including in the 2011-12 and 2012-13 Cricket South Africa

Provincial One-Day Challenge and Three-Day Cup competitions.
