Michael Hussey retires

12 months.
Hussey’s announcement on Saturday that he will retire from international cricket after this week’s final Sydney Test against Sri Lanka, came a month after Ricky Ponting revealed he was calling time on his 17-year career. His departure has created another middle order batting vacancy going into February’s tour of India, followed by Ashes series in England and Australia.

But Hussey (37), who will play his 79th and last Test this week, insisted there was talent available to step in after his surprise decision to retire, despite averaging close to 80 this Australian summer. — AFP.
