In the days after Phillip Hughes’s death, Michael Clarke urged Australian cricket to summon the opener’s spirit and fight on. “We must listen to it,” an emotional Clarke said at Hughes’s packed funeral in Macksville. “We must cherish it. We must learn from it. We must dig in and get through to tea. And we must play on.” They did that on Monday at the SCG, 10 years after Hughes’s final innings of 63 not out at the ground, with flags flying at half mast and players wearing black armbands.
It probably cost me playing for Australia in a way,” Cooper said. “You’re not scared, but it’s in the back of your mind. “There was a period where I was stuffed. But whenever there is a dodgy wicket or that extra yard of pace, it never goes away. “Time heals things. I have replayed it that many times. But it was just a freak accident.” Hughes’s long-time coach Neil D’Costa spent the best part of two months away. “But that wasn’t the answer,” he said.
