A very sad day for Australian sport,he was a very talented young man and he will be missed:( I feel for his family and for Abbott who bowled the fateful ball. I hope CA has some programs in place to offer support for all that need it. What a bloody tragic accident.
Such a terrible tragedy. :(
How tragic. I am lost for words. Jeez I feel for Abbott as well. Although he is totally blameless he would be taking it hard.
Would not be surprised if it ended his career.
Devastating

Now we need to make sure this CANNOT happen again. A major redesign of helmets HAS to take place. Banning the bouncer is not the answer,making equipment safer is the way forward.
Desperately tragic news a great young man cut down in the prime of his life.
I think they should get back to test cricket as scheduled. I am sure Phil Hughes would have wanted the game to go on.
