Michael Hussey, fondly known as Mr. Cricket, is one of the finest examples of perseverance in modern cricket.
He didn’t get his Australia debut until the age of 29, yet went on to become one of the most reliable Test batters of his era. His journey was filled with rises, dips, comebacks & late glory.
Here’s a thread on his career — the story of Michael Hussey.

@premierinn really inconvenient to be told at checkin we have to book breakfast time, and will not be served if we miss the slot. Not practical with young children. Already prepaid for breakfast.
Tweeted this many years ago and what is happening at Reading FC women, continues to demonstrate this fact. Only clubs with super rich owners, and successful men’s teams will remain viable.
Tweeted over 2yrs ago, hearing the news about @CovUnitedLFC until the operational model of the womens game changes, this will continue to happen. WSL/Champ teams are only viable due to rich chairman of the mens team, covering cost, outside of this clubs will struggle financially.
Visiting @GatewayCollegeL for their cultural day to speak about displacement, refugees and asylum seekers. Such sad state of affairs on how our government has made life so difficult for the people already traumatised by war, oppression and injustice but when they get here. The govt wants to dehumanise and criminalise them for seeking protection. People being used as political tools and scapegoats for the problems of society. The media and politicians does a good job creating unnecessary fear and hatred against refugees.
This past week we hosted the #GridForGood event alongside volunteers from @NationalGrid at @GatewayCollegeL in Leicester.
Here's our Programme Manager reflecting on the event and how we can reach and inspire young people to explore opportunities in the energy sector.
