Michael Hussey Chooses Cricket Australia Consultancy Over England Batting Coach Role
Michael Hussey has declined the role of England's Test batting coach, opting instead for a part-time consultancy position with Cricket Australia ahead of the 2024 Ashes. The 51-year-old values the flexibility of the Australian role, allowing him to continue commitments in franchise cricket and broadcasting, including work with Welsh Fire and Chennai Super Kings. Hussey previously consulted for England during their 2022 T20 World Cup win and shares a long professional history with England's head coach Stephen Fleming from their time at CSK.
