Adelaide was struck by tragedy as Pakistani-origin cricketer Junaid Zafar Khan collapsed and died on the pitch during a local turf cricket match amid soaring temperatures. The incident occurred over the weekend during a match between Old Concordians and Prince Alfred Old Collegians at Concordia College, Adelaide.

Death on the pitch due to extreme heat

Junaid Zafar Khan, who moved to Australia from Pakistan in 2013, was batting for Old Concordians when he suddenly collapsed. At the time, the temperature had reportedly reached 41.7 degrees Celsius. Paramedics attempted to revive him, but their efforts were unsuccessful.

His club, Old Collegians, expressed their grief in a statement:

“We are deeply saddened by the passing of a valued member of the Old Concordians’ Cricket Club, who tragically suffered a medical episode while playing on the Concordia College oval today. Despite the best efforts of paramedics, he sadly did not survive. Thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with his family, friends, and teammates during this difficult time.”

Tributes pour in for Junaid Zafar Khan

Junaid, who worked in the tech industry after moving to Adelaide, was remembered fondly by his friends and colleagues. His close friend Hasan Anjum described his passing as a “big loss.”

“It’s a huge loss, he was destined for very big things in his life,” Anjum told The Advertiser.
