Hussey should surely be brought in for the fourth test if Hayden fails yet again at Old Trafford.

Hayden did look in good touch in the second innings at Edgbaston and if he plays a big innings at Old Trafford, well and good. But he has been the weak link in Aussie batting of late. Every other batsman has got regular good starts while Hayden's average is not only worse than that of every Australian batsman but it's even lower than that of Shane Warne and Brett Lee!

Hussey has done superbly well in the domestic circuit and he played some wonderful knocks under tremendous pressure in the recent ODIs. He's surely capable of dealing with the situation if thrown into the ring for the fourth test. He might not set the world on fire, but he'll most probably do better than Hayden.
