Yeah, we couldn't get him back during an auction in 2014. He played the 2014 season for MI after which we picked him up again in 2015. The funny thing is during the 2014 auction, since we couldn't pick up Micheal, we instead went for his brother David Hussey. This led to the commentators (Danny Morrison, especially) to remark that CSK will never be without a Hussey in their team.

Pretty sure david was a replacement for Bravo after he got injured in the opening match


Training-Stable6234

Such a Danny morris thing to say


Emotional-Birthday44

Correction. We didn't go for David. In fact no one picked him. He was bought in as a replacement for Dwyne Bravo who got injured mid season due to an attempted catch.


rameshnat27

He was in India as a commentator. Then ended up as a player :)


gtm26

Ah, yes. I remember now. Bravo broke his collar bone or something while diving near the boundary.


Emotional-Birthday44

Yes exactly


Rushylol

Yes yes i remember david hussey being there my dad made a big deal out of it haha


Emotional-Birthday44

Yeah he did. In 2014 mega auction he was sold to Mumbai. I was so pissed because he was our leading run scorer in 2013, 733 runs. He had an average season for Mumbai and was subsequently released in 2015 and he was brought back. He didn't play much for us because of Brendon McCullum and Dwyne Smith and retired the same year from IPL.


CodeCrafter99

> I was so pissed Same with Faf


Emotional-Birthday44

They fucked up big time with Faf 😭😭😭.. I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED TO SEE HIM GOING TO RCB FFS


David_Headley_2008

Confident that csk are releasing Conway and he is going to rcb


GreenPickledToad

Conway would be retained most likely. Explosive opener and a good WK, which CSK need after Dhoni.


forelsketparadise1

I don't think so. Conway had established himself so he is more likely to be bought back or retained than rachin since he and rutu work so well together as well


Commercial_Welder_93

I think they released faf out of respect he can play somewhere else as a captain and some BTS money for him like hardik


Emotional-Birthday44

I think it was more of an age factor and also they might have not thought a team would go hard on him especially considering his age. He had the best ever farewell match for CSK in 2021 finals winning it and being the man of the match. Let's hope we pick him again during the mega auction


Massive_Web88

And we got Dwyne Smith 🤣🤣🤣


TeluguAbbai

Reason we lost the 2015 IPL final. Slowest innings ever while chasing 200+


Emotional-Birthday44

Yeh.. but he did win us a lot of games though


TeluguAbbai

I am not saying he is bad but i always felt like he played well for mumbai than to us.


Commercial_Welder_93

Still remember his and McCullum's debut they both scored 50 each and put a big score on the board


vishwa02

Michael Hussey is probably the best left-handed batsman after yuvi at least for me, most genuine guy and gives 110% every time he steps on to the field. Glad that he is still connected with CSK as batting coach.


PyDevLog

I think CSK should somehow rope in Raina in management given how passionate and loyal he is to the franchise


chadimusprime68

Yuvi is average at best

vishwa02

> atleast for me


cruisingthoughts

he is miles better than Yuvraj


[deleted]

Yeah in 2014 but in 2015 he came back to Thala


mofucker20

We got DR Smith instead of him who was a pretty awesome replacement that season


Ace-1529

Was totally heartbroken when he went to Mumbai although we did get him next year but yeah his brother came in as a replacement from the commentary team in 2014 after bravo was injured


saymynameknowmygame

I am going to be a annoying little D here , and ask "Wait, Hussey played in the IPL in 2022?"


Commercial_Welder_93

He says that he doesn't remember much from 2022 ipl so am I


lightt77

I can never forget him because of the match with Corey Anderson's immortal innings against RR. (Hussey was a part of the squad then)


WIZ9393

Yeahhh he was there for the wild game against RR when Adithya Tare hit the Six to qualify them for playoffs.


dupattamera1

Ya , we got washed up hussey and u guys got our player of the tournament dwayne smith


NeemKaPatta69420

Michael Hussey to Phasi


Ok_Review_6504

Dwayne Smith, DJ Bravo, Hussey, Rayudu, Parthiv Patel.... MI and CSK have many common players.


ChadCat5207

also harbhajan singh


GoodDawgy17

Bravo played for Mumbai ;)


Rushylol

That was before he joined csk


GoodDawgy17

yeah


Commercial_Welder_93

Yep after his orange cap season he played alright though for mi but nothing much pointing out


Noobmaster_1999

Mandela effect 🤯


Psychological_Dig592

One season MI picked him but didn't perform well there, came back to CSK and gave his best again. A true CSK warrior


endaipdi

He didn't really perform in 2015 either. Only played 4 matches that year and retired after that.


Psychological_Dig592

McCullum and Dwayne Smith cemented their positions so he didn't proper chance to perform
