Australian batsman Phil Hughes passed away at the age of 25 on November 27 2014, just two days after being struck on the head by a short-pitched delivery at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Tributes quickly poured in for Hughes, who played 26 Test matches and 25 one-day internationals after bursting onto the scene as a teenager with New South Wales.
The accident has sparked a debate over the safety of modern-day cricketers and the effectiveness of helmets.
