Friday, 15 December 2023



PERTH, Australia, Dec 14 (AFP): Australian allrounder Cameron Green revealed Thursday he suffers from a chronic kidney disease and that he was not expected to live past the age of 12.
Now 24, he has gone on to become a key member of the Australian team across all three formats, although he has fallen out of favour in recent months.
"My parents got told when I was born I had a chronic kidney disease," he said in an interview with Channel Seven during Australia's first Test against Pakistan in Perth.
"Basically there are no symptoms, it just got picked up during ultrasounds."
