A baby girl for Adam Hollioake

Surrey captain Adam Hollioake, who has not appeared for the county this season following the death of his brother Ben in a car crash in Australia in March, has become a father.

His wife, Sherryn, has given birth to a girl weighing 7 lb 10 oz in Perth, where the family stayed following the accident. The latest addition to the Hollioake family has been named Bennaya, in memory of Ben and his girlfriend Janaya who was seriously injured in the crash.

Mother and baby are reported to be doing well and it is expected that they and Adam will return to England in the near future.
