Ashley Giles on Hughes death: 'The game must go on'
2005 Ashes winner and former England cricket coach, Ashley Giles, said cricket must look at safety, but the game "must go on" after Phillip Hughes "freak" death.
The 25-year-old Australian Test batsman died in hospital two days after being hit on the neck by a delivery during a domestic match in Sydney.
Giles said that some individuals "may take a while to get back on the pitch" but added "you cant take this (bouncers)" out of cricket.
