PERTH, April 2: The condition of the girlfriend of England cricketer Ben Hollioake, killed in a car crash here 11 days ago, has improved slightly, a hospital spokesman said Tuesday.
Janaya Scholten, a passenger in the same vehicle, had been in a critical condition with severe head and chest injuries since the crash, but her condition has been upgraded to serious but stable, the Royal Perth Hospital spokesman said.
She remains in intensive care.
Scholten turned 23 the day after the March 23 crash that claimed the life of her 24-year-old boyfriend, an Australian-born England Test and One-day International cricketer.
His Porsche slammed into a brick wall as he came off a Perth freeway exit shortly after midnight.
He was returning home after attending a social function with his family.—AFP
