Hughes passed away on November 27 2014 after being struck on the head by a bouncer during a Sheffield Shield match at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

The former batsman played in three Ashes series against England, in 2009-2010, 2010-2011 and in 2013.

Aussie openers David Warner and Cameron Bancroft also paid their respect by wearing black armbands, with Warner looking to the skies while on 63 not out, the score Hughes was on when he was struck.
