A statement from Ben Jess Austin’s father was released by Cricket Australia.
“This tragedy has taken our Ben away from us, but we get some comfort knowing he was doing something that he loved for so many summers – hitting a cricket ball with his mates in the nets,” he said. “He loved cricket and it was one of his life’s joys.”
“We need him to be his roommate, who holds the bowl in the nets – in this case, two young men and our thoughts, and the family, we’re really thinking about it together.”
