Coach Woolmer rushed to hospital

Woolmer took over as Pakistan coach in June 2004

Pakistan coach Bob Woolmer has been rushed to hospital after being found unconscious in his hotel room. The 58-year-old former South Africa coach, who played for England between 1975-81, was discovered at his hotel in Jamaica at 1045 local time on Sunday. Pakistan were eliminated from the World Cup on Saturday after losing by three wickets to minnows Ireland. Team manager Pervez Mir confirmed: "We have taken him to hospital and he is in an emergency ward." Woolmer said after the Ireland match that he was considering his future in the game. His contract was in any case unlikely to be renewed by the Pakistan Cricket Board after the tournament. But Woolmer said: "I'm going to sleep on this one as I've had a very bad day, which ranks along with my worst days as a coach. "Coaching is what I like to do but whether I continue to do that at international level is under discussion. "I'm going to give it some thought." The PCB is expected to release a statement later on Sunday.
