Tymal Mills: England bowler withdrew from Big Bash after daughter suffered stroke

Tymal Mills decided to pull out of the Big Bash after his daughter had a stroke.

When his daughter fell ill, the England fast bowler was at the airport ready to go.

Mills wrote that she lost use of the left side of her body.

Delphi has recovered enough to return to her home for Christmas.

The left-arm seamer withdrew from the team due to a family emergency.

He was due to return to Australia in a month after helping England win the T20 World Cup.

"Despite all of the challenges she faced our little girl has astounded everyone with her recovery to the point where we were discharged with her hopping and skipping out of the hospital," he said.

We are so grateful to be where we are right now because she has a lot of work to do.

Mills missed the birth of their second child while he was in England for the World Cup.
