Mike Hussey, definately has all of the shots, he is a magnificent driver of the ball, and can hook a six as well.

He is the text book batsman, he was never as good as he is today, he in a similar way to, Matthew Hayden, has re-invented himself as a batsman.

In spite of this there is something about the likes of, Viv Richards, Greg Chappell, Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara, etc that, Hussey, doesn't have, this however doesn't mean that his Test and One Day International batting averages won't be higher than those four batsman on the day that he retires, I think it probably will be.

The reality is those four batsman were playing in Tests long before they peaked where as, Hussey, was fortunate enough to be at his peak when he was first selected.
