Mike Hussey occupies the eight spot in our list of Top 10 Greatest Australian Batsmen of All Time. Hussey  was a relative latecomer to both the ODI and Test teams, debuting at 28 and 30 years of age in the respective formats with 15313 first-class runs before making his Test debut. He is a run machine who is virtually impossible to be distracted at the crease. He is known for his consistency in batting across all formats irrespective of the conditions. Thousands of cricketers made their debut and retired at some stage, but Mike Hussey had the privilege to be called as Mr. Cricket. After two years in the Test side his average rose to 86.18 and when he called it a day he averaged 51.52 in Tests, 48.15 in ODI’s and 38 in T20’s. No wonder he is called Mr. Cricket.
