Former Australian Test cricketer Michael Hussey has said that the brand of cricket his team played in the current Ashes series has just been phenomenal and very good to watch.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Hussey added that he could not believe how emphatic the victories were for the Australian team as he expected them to be a lot more close.

He added that Australia just played excellent cricket led by Michael Clarke and Mitchell Johnson.

Hussey added that some of the players might have been motivated by how England celebrated their last Ashes win and spurred to teach them a lesson.

However, he said that playing in an Ashes series is big enough a source of motivation.

He further said that he saw plenty of positives from the Australian performance in the series in England.
