After striking the ball whilst batting right-handed, he then swapped hands to bat with his left-hand and proceeded to strike the ball once again. It was after this strike that he suddenly collapsed and died. Following a post-mortem, the cause of death was established as "syncope due to fatty degeneration of the heart, and probably accelerated by over-exertion on a full stomach". A verdict of death by natural causes was returned.
