The South Australian Cricket Association (SACA), in conjunction with
Cricket Australia, has today announced various tributes in honour of
David Hookes to occur across all levels of cricket this weekend in South
Australia.
Tomorrow's One-Day International between India and Zimbabwe will see the
SACA's president Ian McLachlan lead a minute's silence before the start
of play.
Both India and Zimbabwe participated in a minute's silence prior to
their match on Tuesday (January 20), therefore the SACA requested this
opportunity for a small tribute to David Hookes for the benefit of the
fans attending tomorrow's game.
The One-Day International between Australia and Zimbabwe on Monday
(January 26) will see the West End Redbacks join the two international
teams on the Adelaide Oval, following the national anthem, to observe a
minute's silence.
The Redbacks will wear their Pura Cup uniform and SACA red cap during
the tribute.
All Grade clubs, both men's and women's, will wear black armbands this
weekend and observe a minute's silence prior to the start of each match.
Flags at the Adelaide Oval will continue to fly at half mast throughout
the weekend.
