Michael Hussey

He was 28 years old when he made his ODI debut but Mr Cricket Michael Hussey soon became one of the world’s best batsmen and is still regarded as one of the greatest limited overs batsmen to have played the game.

It was almost as if the absence of Michael Bevan was never really felt by the Australians. He was a left-hander like Bevan but in addition to everything that made the latter great, Hussey could also be a brutal power-hitter when the need arose.

He surpassed Bevan as far as consistency stakes are concerned and although he averaged 48.16 (less than Bevan) in 185 games from 20014 to 2012, he never averaged any lower than 47.89. It is no wonder that Australia are still struggling to find a replacement for Hussey even though he retired 6 years ago.
