Sydney Sixers ace batter Daniel Hughes has been ruled out of the remainder of Big Bash League 2024-2025. He sustained a recurrent ligament injury which ruled him out of BBL|14.

The 35-year-old picked up the injury after landing awkwardly during fielding against Melbourne Renegades. Medical reports then said that the southpaw has sustained a recurrent ligament injury to his right elbow.

Sydney Sixers General Manager, Rachael Haynes said:
 
“While the news is not what we had hoped for Daniel, and we’re obviously incredibly disappointed to lose him for the remainder of this season, we know that he’ll commit himself to his rehab over the coming months, just as he did earlier in the year.
 
“A pleasing aspect of our group is that we have players ready to step up at any time and we know that whoever comes into the side will be prepared to play their role.
 
“Regardless of if he’s on the field or not, Daniel remains a core part of our group, and we’ll wrap our arms around him in the weeks ahead.”

Sydney Sixers squad for BBL|14: Sean Abbott, Jackson Bird, Jafer Chohan, Joel Davies, Ben Dwarshuis, Jack Edwards, Moises Henriques, Akeal Hosein, Hayden Kerr, Ben Manenti, Todd Murphy, Kurtis Patterson, Mitch Perry, Josh Philippe, Jordan Silk, Steve Smith, James Vince, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc.
