MELBOURNE, Oct 29: An Australian teenager, Ben Austin, 17, has died after he was hit by a cricket ball during a practice session in Melbourne. He was training with a helmet but no neck guard in the cricket nets in Ferntree Gully on Tuesday when he was hit in the neck by a ball thrown using a handheld ball launcher. Taken to hospital in critical condition, he was put on life support but died on Thursday.
Both India and Australia wore black armbands as a mark of respect for Ben Austin at the MCG after the toss in the second T20I on Friday.
Similarly, Australia Test batsman Phillip Hughes, 25, died after being struck in the neck by a ball during a domestic match in Sydney last year.
