Phillip Hughes News

Australian cricketer Sean Abbott, who bowled the bouncer that struck and killed Phillip Hughes, was involved in another chilling incident that felled a batsman in the domestic Sheffield Shield Sunday.

The incident comes three years after the tragic death of Australian batsman Phillip Hughes in similar circumstances.

The first of the four Tests of the 2014 series Down Under was postponed from December 4 to December 9 in Adelaide because of the funeral.

And not to mention, it revived memories of Phillip Hughes.

Concluding the inquest, NSW Coroner Michael Barnes said Hughes's death was an accident.

Concerns had been raised during the inquest by Hughes` family about on-field sledging, including threats against him, and the amount of short, fast deliveries he faced which they felt the umpires could have stopped.

But a brave Rahim, who was playing in his 50th Test, decided to carry on after a thorough check by the team physio.

There were reports that Cooper had told Jason of the sledge in the changing room after the incident.

I ran to the other end of the pitch and I held the right side of his head with my left hand, said Sean Abbot.

A spokesman for the Hughes family, his former manager James Henderson, said in a brief statement it would be a "very, very, very difficult week".

Play was stopped for several minutes while Mathews recovered from the impact of the ball from fast bowler Scott Boland which evoked memories of the on-field death of the Australian batsman Phillip Hughes in 2014.

The report also said the slow arrival of the ambulance to the Sydney Cricket Ground that provided medical treatment to the test cricketer played no part in his death.

Hughes' death -- a freak accident -- stunned Australia and the world cricket community, sparking an outpouring of grief.
