Scotland all-rounder Con de Lange loses to Brain Tumour

Scotland all-rounder Con de Lange passed away on Friday morning after a lengthy battle with a brain tumour. He was 38.

The South Africa-born player played 21 international matches for Scotland, making his debut in a T20I against Ireland in June 2015, and he was a vital part of its middle order.

The spinner’s career-best figure of 5/60 against Zimbabwe which handed Scotland its first ever ODI win over a full-member team.

Along with his family, he started a charity for Brain Tumour after watching his friend lose the battle for the same. He raised money by conducting walks and event for the same.
