Michael Hussey one of the best Australian batsman has retired and whats more he will complete his career on a high after Australia completed whitewash winning the test series 3-0 against Sri Lanka.The Aussies played like true champions and have a very balanced attack which can trouble any team.Michael Clarke and a few others in the team have been in good form which is helping them as well.Sri Lanka on the other hand will be disappointed and will be raring to bounce back.
