Sydney: A new documentary has been released to highlight the cricketing journey of late Australian opener Phillip Hughes.
 
Titled 'The Boy from Macksville', the documentary showcases Hughes' journey as a promising junior cricketer all the way to his entry into the Australian national team.
 
The documentary - which is available to be viewed above - speaks with former Australian captains Ricky Ponting and Michael Clarke and a group of Hughes' ex-teammates such as Usman Khawaja, Aaron Finch and Matthew Wade.
 
Hughes' family members are also interviewed for the first time since Phillip’s death on November 27, 2014, with the documentary released to mark the 10-year anniversary since his unfortunate passing during a domestic Sheffield Shield match in Australia, an ICC report said.
