Hughes鈥 kin scores 63 in return

PHILLIP Hughes’ older brother returned to Sydney grade cricket yesterday for the first time since the Australia batsman’s death, and Jason Hughes had a most appropriate score.

The elder Hughes scored 63 for Mosman against Sydney, the same number of runs his brother made when he was fatally struck by a bouncer two weeks ago at the Sydney Cricket Ground in a domestic first-class match. Phillip Hughes died two days later on November 27.

The figure of 63 was used in many tributes to Phillip Hughes following his death, including a 63-second applause at the start of the first India-Australia test in Adelaide this week.
