Australian cricket great Rod Marsh, widely regarded as one of the finest wicketkeepers to ever play the game, has died after suffering a heart attack at a charity event, his former teammates said Friday. Marsh, 74, who played 96 Tests and was later a long-time national selector, had been in an induced coma and passed away at a hospital in Adelaide.
