New South Wales and Tasmania players and coaching staff have paid their respects to Phillip Hughes alongside match umpires during a touching minute's silence ahead of the final day of their Sheffield Shield clash.

Most cricket lovers will remember where they were on November 27 2014, when they learnt that Phillip Hughes had died after two agonising days of hoping for better news from Sydney’s St Vincent’s Hospital.

A decade after Australian cricketer Phillip Hughes's tragic death, his family, friends, and teammates honoured his memory. Hughes, 25, succumbed to a brain injury after being struck by a ball during a match in 2014.

Phil Hughes was playing for his domestic side South Australia against New South Wales in a Sheffield Sheild fixture at the Sydney Cricket Ground on November 25 when he was struck on his neck by a bouncer from Sean Abbott.
