Former Indian Cricketer David Johnson Passes Away After Falling from Fourth Floor

David Johnson, a former Indian fast bowler, tragically passed away after falling from the roof of his fourth-floor apartment in Bangalore. Initial reports are investigating the circumstances around his death, with some sources suggesting it may have been a suicide.

Johnson, who had been battling depression, allegedly jumped from his apartment balcony, according to some accounts in the Indian media. He was known in his later years for running a cricket academy close to his residence, contributing to the development of young cricketers.

Johnson’s cricket career began in the domestic circuit with the Ranji Trophy in 1995, and he ascended to international cricket by playing a Test match against Australia in 1996. His international career was brief, encompassing only two Test matches where he claimed three wickets.
