David John Hussey (born 15 July 1977) is an Australian cricket coach and former
Australian domestic career
Hussey's cricketing prowess was perhaps first widely acknowledged after an innings for the
In 2013, Hussey was involved in an incident in the Big Bash League, with Marlon Samuels and Shane Warne, after Samuels had grabbed Hussey while in the process of running between the wickets which followed Warne abusing Samuels in the following innings, and Samuels throwing his bat in Warne's direction.[3][4]
English cricket
Hussey started his English cricket career at Horsham Cricket Club in Sussex. From 2004, Hussey played for county side Nottinghamshire. In the English summer of 2004, Hussey score 1208 runs for Nottinghamshire. In 2005, he had another prolific season, scoring 1231 runs. He hit two centuries and one double century, 232* against Warwickshire as his county went on to win the championship. In the subsequent county season, Hussey scored a career best 275, off just 227 balls and with 14 sixes.[5] His record for the year was an exceptional 1,219 runs at 93.76.[2] Hussey signed for Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club for the 2008 and 2009 seasons, but due to commitments to the Australian national team withdrew from the end of the 2008 season.[6]
Hussey returned to Notts for the majority of the 2010 season, and left the county at the end of the 2013 season, signing off with a century against Somerset in the County Championships. During his final season, he also helped Notts beat Glamorgan by 87 runs to win the YB40 final at Lord's, their first one-day trophy since 1989.
International career
In 2004, Hussey played four
Hussey's international representative career continued with selection for the ODI tour of the West Indies in the Australian off-season of 2008. He made his debut at Basseterre on 4 July 2008 in the fourth ODI of the bilateral series against the West Indies and scored 52, involved in a 50 partnership with brother Michael. In the fifth ODI, he created a new record for Australia when he struck a half century off just 19 balls. Incidentally, earlier in the same match, wicket keeper Luke Ronchi scored his half century off just 21 balls only to see it eclipsed by Hussey minutes later.
On 28 August 2009, Hussey registered his maiden ODI century against Scotland getting 111 off 87 balls. Nevertheless, although he represented Australia in a number of T20 International matches during 2010,[7] Hussey did not play another one day international after scoring his century against Scotland until he was selected for the 1st ODI against England at the MCG on 16 January 2011.[8] During England's innings, Hussey took figures of 2/42 off six overs with the ball, but was not required to bat during Australia's successful run chase.[9] On 23 January 2011 in the third ODI match in a series against England, he scored 68* to take Australia to victory and a 3–0 series lead over England with four games to play. On 6 February 2011 he scored 60 in the 3rd ODI match against England as Australia completed a resounding 6–1 series win at the WACA in Perth.
Despite his exemplary first class average of 55.27 (as of the end of the 2010/11 season), Hussey has never been selected to play a Test Match for Australia. Outside of India, Hussey is the only batsman to average more than 54 at first class level, but never be selected for a test.
In the 2011–2012 tri-series held in Australia against India and Sri Lanka, Hussey scored the third most runs between the three teams, making 439 runs with an average 54.88.[10]
