Worcs' tribute to Hughes

Worcestershire has shown that the county keeps Australians close to its heart with a moving tribute to late Phillip Hughes.

Hughes visited the county with the national men's teams on each of his Ashes tours and spent a season playing county cricket with Worcester in 2012.

A memorial plaque was placed on April 8 prior to the start of the current county season and in addition to the tile, a portrait of Hughes is set to be erected in the Graeme Hick Pavilion alongside the club's greats of the past.

Hughes was a club favourite during his stint at Worcestershire in 2012.
