M: 17, Runs: 733, Avg.: 52.35, SR: 129.5

‘Mr. Cricket’ Mike Hussey, is yet another Australian to make this list. Hussey opened the innings for Chennai Super Kings in the 2013 season and scored his runs at a healthy average in excess of 50.

He was the pillar of their batting as he laid a solid platform for the likes of Raina and Dhoni to come and explode in the death overs, helping their team post daunting totals.

Equaling Gayle’s record for maximum runs in a single season, Hussey scored six half centuries en-route to his Orange Cap award winning performance in 2013.Then 38-years-old, Michael Hussey remains the oldest recipient of the Orange Cap in the history of the tournament.
