He must be devastated. The ball he threw killed another man. 22 year old Bowler Sean Abbott, whose bouncer hit Philip Hughes in a freak accident on November 25th pictured above being comforted as he left St Vincent's Hospital today after the 25 year old was confirmed dead.
Sean is said to be inconsolable, though he's getting a lot of support from family, friends and fans of late Philip Hughes. Nobody blames him for his death. See more photos after the cut...

How it happened...
| This is the shot that caused Phil Hughes' fatal injury on Tuesday afternoon |
| Hughes, pictured after absorbing the shot, collapsed face first to the ground shortly after the bouncer hit the back of his head |
| Hughes collapsed onto the pitch seconds after this picture was taken |
| He collapsed shortly after being struck by the bouncer |
| He received mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on the pitch and was soon whisked by medical transport off the pitch to St Vincent's Hospital in Sydney where he died two days later...today! |
RIP, Philip.
