Melbourne: Australia's chinaman bowler Brad Hogg made a shocking revelation saying he contemplated suicide during his retirement from international cricket and subsequent breakdown of his first marriage to Andrea.
In his latest autobiography 'The Wrong 'Un', Hogg sheds light on his battle with depression and how he took to alcohol.
"I parked my car at Port Beach and went for a walk. I'd stare at the sea and think, I could swim out to that groyne, and if I make it back fine. If I don't make it back well, hard luck," news.com.au said excerpts which appeared in his book.
"I was prepared to let fate decide. I was in a really dark place. I did that Fremantle drive four times. And each time I thought about doing something really drastic," he added.
The 45-year-old veteran also wrote that he started crying uncontrollably while fielding during his seventh and final Test against India in January, 2008 at the Adelaide Oval.
