According to Hussey, Ferguson, who is turning 30 on Friday, has played some consistent cricket over the past three seasons at an average above 50. He further said that he has a better understanding of the game as he is mature and currently is the leading run scorer in Shield cricket, reported News.com.au. He has even scored runs away from the Adelaide Oval, Hussey added.

Australia's batting order has not been decided for the first Test against India, which is scheduled to start from December 4 in Brisbane, as captain Michael Clarke has been struck with a hamstring injury and the number three spot, previously held by the dumped Alex Doolan, remains vacant .
