as cricket great Martin Crowe diagnosed with cancer
New Zealand cricket great Martin Crowe's family is in "shock" following the news he has lymphoma.
The former New Zealand captain was diagnosed with the cancer this week, a statement issued by his manager Louise Henderson said.
"Understandably the family have a number of issues to confront over the next couple of weeks. The diagnosis is very new, the family is still in shock and obviously dealing with the understanding that life as they know it for the unforeseeable future is different," she said.
Henderson is also manager to Crowe's wife, former Miss Universe Lorraine Downes.
The family requested privacy as they came to terms with the situation, Henderson said.
Crowe turned 50 last month.
His Test career spanned from 1982 to 1995 in which he averaged 45.36 and established himself as one of the country's best batsmen.
Crowe made his Test debut aged just 19 and Tiffany Rings Sydney went on to appear in 77 Tests and 143 one day internationals.
He was also the inspirational leader behind New Zealand's memorable run to the World Cup semi finals on home soil in 1992.
His 17 centuries are still the most by any New Zealander at Test level.
He might well have scored more had it not been for a crippling knee injury that forced him to retire in 1996 at the age of just 33.
A successful career in commentary for Sky TV followed before he changed roles and took up a job with Sky's Rugby Channel.
He also came up with an Tiffany And Co Charm Bracelet Australia abbreviated version of the game called Cricket Max which was played in New Zealand before Twenty20 cricket was invented.
Crowe attempted a comeback last year, but in Vibram Sydney his first premier match for Auckland club Cornwall was forced to retire hurt and conceded his body wasn't up to the rigours of the sport.
WHAT IS LYMPHOMA?
The Lymphoma Network of New Zealand said lymphoma was a little known but prevalent cancer which was growing in incidence both globally and in New Zealand.
Lymphomas are cancers that affect the lymphatic system and arise when Tiffany Rings Sydney developing Pandora Bracelet Price lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) Tiffany Silver Bracelet Australia undergo a malignant change and multiply in an uncontrolled way.
