I find this article really scary, just hope he recovers somehow.

Phillip Hughes damaged major artery and is not breathing on his own, says Alan Jones

The ABC has also reported the passing away of Phil Hughes

Guys, your choice is your own, but I've decided to keep my avatar as Hughes for the entirety of this home summer and the WC series in honour of Hughes' too short career.

 

[Adders]

Yeah mines staying until after the WC too.

 

[morgieb]

Yes mine will stay for the short-term at least.

Stunned. Happy you made this thread red hill. Edit well not happy given the circumstances but at least it has given us a chance to show we care

I didn't know I could be this sad at the passing of someone I never knew. RIP Phillip.

I feel the same way. Just a really horrible experience.

The death of anyone is always surreal. Even more surreal when that person is young. When that person is associated with something you passionately love and dies in the pageant of the thing you love, well....

I'd like to imagine in cricketing heaven that Hughes has already found Archie Jackson and they're sitting, smiling and discussing what might've been, and also discussing how fickle both batting and life can be. Maybe Trumper sits close by, nodding.

I'd like to imagine Hughes lamenting to Don Bradman that he was robbed of a ton while the Don smiles and nods
