Former Indian fast bowler David Johnson, 52, died on June 20 after falling from a balcony in Bengaluru. Johnson played 2 Tests for India in the 1990s, taking 3 wickets, and had a notable domestic career with 125 wickets in 39 First-Class matches for Karnataka. The incident, occurring at SLV Paradise, is suspected to be a suicide linked to depression. Johnson was managing a cricket academy and leaves behind his wife and two children. Tributes from the cricket community, including Anil Kumble and Gautam Gambhir, have been heartfelt.
