Intro:
Australian Cricket Captain Michael Clarke gave an emotional statement about Phillip Hughes on behalf of the National Cricket Team on Saturday (29th November).
Script:
"Words cannot express the loss we all feel as a team right now. To Greg, Virginia, Jason and Megan, we share in the deep pain that you're feeling."
"Apart from when he was home on The Farm with his beloved cattle, Hughsy was at his happiest playing cricket for his country with his mates. Things were always put into perspective when Hughsy said, "Where else would you rather be, boys, but playing cricket for your country?"
"He epitomised what the baggy green is about and what it means to us all. The world lost one of its great blokes this week and we are all poorer for it. Our promise to Hughsy's family is that we will do everything we can to honour his memory. "
"Our dressing room will never be the same. We loved him, and always will. Rest in peace Brussie."
