Voges was struck in the back of the helmet while attempting to evade a Cam Stevenson bouncer shortly before lunch on day one of Western Australia's Sheffield Shield clash with Tasmania at the WACA Ground. In May, Voges was struck in the back of the head in bizarre fashion while captaining English county side Middlesex. On that occasion, Voges was struck by his own teammate after a boundary had been scored. Ollie Rayner threw the ball back, but it sailed over the wicketkeeper's head and hit Voges. Voges' latest head blow comes less than two years after Phillip Hughes died after being struck by a bouncer in similar fashion during a Sheffield Shield clash.
