Surrey Cricket Club in Mourning Following Passing of Lynn Stewart
Surrey County Cricket Club is in mourning after the death of Lynn Stewart, the wife of Alec Stewart, their former captain and director of cricket. Lynn Stewart passed away after a courageous 12-year fight with breast cancer. This news is a significant loss for the cricket community, particularly for Surrey and its supporters.
Tributes Paid at The Oval
Flags at The Oval were lowered to half-mast this morning as a mark of respect. Surrey is currently hosting Hampshire in the county championship. Oli Slipper, the club chair, expressed the sentiments of the entire club, stating: ‘Everyone at Surrey County Cricket Club extends their deepest condolences to Alec and the entire Stewart family.’
Slipper added, ‘We offer our unwavering support to the family during this incredibly difficult time and kindly request that their privacy be respected.’
Alec Stewart Stepped Down to Support Wife
Alec Stewart, aged 62, recently concluded his tenure as director of cricket after a successful period that saw Surrey secure a championship hat-trick in 2024. He transitioned to a part-time role as high-performance cricket advisor. This change was made to enable him to dedicate more time to his wife.
Explaining his decision last year to Sky Sports, Stewart said, ‘I do owe her some time,’ highlighting his commitment to Lynn and their family.
