The home association plans to celebrate the legacy of the flamboyant southpaw, who played 26 Tests for Australia, and has produced a special documentary on him in conjunction with the Hughes family that will be broadcasted ahead of the Test match.

“We understand this will be a time of reflection for the many people who knew and admired Phillip Hughes,” Cricket Australia (CA) CEO Nick Hockley said.

“We wanted to ensure that the Hughes family, particularly, were comfortable with any commemorations and that we celebrate Phillip’s life and incredible achievements appropriately,” he added.
