Cricket commentator Richie Benaud is recovering in a hospital as he crashed while travelling in his car.
The 83 year old Senior Commentator was returning to home after playing Golf while he got hit into a brick wall. He suffered a serious chest and shoulder injury, but sources now say he has recovered a bit.
Richie recently tweeted about the accident and thanked his fans for their wishes and admitted the crash could prevent him from commentating the upcoming Ashes series against England.

Thanks for all the get well wishes folks. I'm fine- but the shoulder injury could keep me out the Ashes. RB
Richie as usual in a funny mood stated he was mostly concerned about his brand new car a 1963 Sunbeam Alpine rather than himself at the crashing moment!
He is expected to stay in the hospital for a few days.
