Just days after a bouncer killed the Australia Test batsman Phillip Hughes tragedy has again struck on a cricket pitch when an umpire standing in a match in the Israeli city of Ashdod was killed after being hit by a ball.
The 60-year-old umpire, who was not named, was taken to hospital in the nearby town of Ashkelon in a critical condition and died of his injuries.
