There is a fine balance between comfort, safety and practicality. The ball hit him in the neck, which is hard to protect without restricting comfort and practicality.

It's an extremely freak and rare accident, however unfortunate. To take any sweeping changes to rules of the game would be akin to banning bananas because someone accidentally slipped on a peel and died. The only thing they can probably look at is regarding helmets.

there is a flaw in the protection gears. Mainly the Helmet. Gloves/Pads gets a pass cause you can break an arm/leg and still live to tell your stories. Blow on the head/neck is very fatal. Manufacturers needs to think about redesigning the helmet without loosing vision in the process of playing and watching the ball.

Watching Pak test. Doesnt seem like a test. Players just going through the motion. No noise, no claps, no close-in fielders for spinner. New Zealanders are just like robots on the ground. No celebration as the wicket fell.

Gabba test most likely is not happening. the NZ players are also in shock and are not looking at all in the game. If this is the case I don't know how the Australian players are going to take the field. The Test Series may have to be postponed to next year or something. This is going to be a tour of turmoil if it goes on. One time I am glad Dhoni is back to lead the team. He is kind of person you need guiding the boys at times like this.

Cancelling the test will be disastorous.No other sport has done this.There are numerous examples of that.Remember that the test is still 6 days away.
