Australian batsman Phillip Hughes never happen again. Hughes, wearing a helmet, was struck on the neck by a short-pitched delivery when batting in a domestic match on Tuesday, with the force of the blow piercing his vertebral artery and causing blood to gush into his brain. He died in hospital on Thursday aged 25. The incident has brought the focus back on cricket`s protective equipment, specifically helmets which are supposed to prevent such fatal injuries. This is very, very sad. These injuries are part of cricket but precautions should be taken so that such incidents do not happen, Dalmiya, who was ICC president from 1997-2000, told Reuters. I hope this never happens again on the cricket field.
