- Scored just a single run on his Test debut but soon made up for this with 137 in his second match.

- Only the third man to score three championship triple-hundreds after Wally Hammond and Graeme Hick.

- ODI International Batsman of the Year 2006.

- Nicknamed 'Mr Cricket', Hussey dominated the English bowling attack during the 2006-07 Ashes series before skippering his country in their short ODI series defeat in New Zealand in Feb 07.

- Started 2008 with a Test average of 80.58, but a tough series in India and agonising form during back-to-back Test series against South Africa saw that plummet to a more human 55.29 ahead of the 2009 Ashes.
