Philip Hughes' tragic death has been ruled as an accident with no one to blame for the incident.
NSW State Coroner Michael Barnes believes there was no malicious intent from Sean Abbott when bowling to Hughes, and said that "even the best can't perform perfectly all the time" in reference to Hughes' dealing of the short ball.
Barnes also found that the sledging had no impact on Hughes, but did ask for cricketers to re-think the use of sledging given what had taken place during the inquest.
When Hughes was struck with the fatal delivery the Coroner said those that came to Hughes' aid acted selflessly, but did admit there was confusion surrounding how to get Hughes medical assistance.
NSW Justice tweeted out the recommendations made by Coroner Barnes, with a full list to be released over the coming hours.
