    Former Zimbabwe captain and coach Heath Streak, who had been suffering from colon cancer, has died at the age of 49.

    Streak is Zimbabwe's all-time leading wicket-taker and once took 6-87 in a Test against England to earn a place on the Lord's honours board.

    He was serving an eight-year ban from cricket, issued in 2021, for corruption offences.

    "He was carried to be with the angels," his wife Nadine wrote on social media.

    "In the early hours of this morning, Sunday 3 September, the greatest love of my life and the father of my beautiful children, was carried to be with the angels from his home where he wished to spend his last days surrounded by his family and closest loved ones.

    "He was covered in love and peace and did not walk off the park alone."

    Streak, born in Bulawayo, had three children.

    He played in 65 Tests for Zimbabwe, taking 216 wickets, and 189 one-day internationals, in which he took 239 wickets.

    As a county cricketer, he had spells with Warwickshire and Hampshire.

    RIP <rose>

    Steve Harwell, the lead singer of US band Smash Mouth, has died at the age of 56.

    The band's manager had earlier said Harwell was in the final stages of liver failure and was receiving end of life care at his home.

    In a statement Robert Hayes said Harwell died at his home in Idaho, "surrounded by family and friends".

    Smash Mouth had a string of hits in the 1990s and 2000s with All Star, Walkin' on the Sun and I'm a Believer.

    Hayes added that "Steve lived a 100% full-throttle life. Burning brightly across the universe before burning out".

    Harwell retired from the band in 2021 over physical and mental health issues.

    The musician, who struggled with alcoholism, was diagnosed with the heart ailment cardiomyopathy in 2013; and subsequently a neurological condition which affected his memory and speech.
