Michael Hussey Rejects England Coaching Role for Australia Consultancy Ahead of Ashes
Michael Hussey has declined an offer to become England's Test batting coach, opting instead for a part-time consultancy role with Cricket Australia ahead of the 2027 Ashes. Hussey values the flexibility to continue his commitments in franchise cricket, including The Hundred and the IPL, as well as commentary work. He previously worked with England during their 2022 T20 World Cup win. England's head coach Stephen Fleming, who has a longstanding relationship with Hussey, may retain Marcus Trescothick as batting coach amid a busy upcoming Test schedule.
