Former Australian Cricketer & Ambassador WIRF
Mike Hussey is one of Western Australia’s most celebrated sporting personalities and an Ambassador of the Women & Infants Research Foundation (WIRF).
As a highly successful international cricketer, he excelled at all forms of the game.
Hussey, a key member of the near-invincible Australian side which boasted names such as Warne, McGrath, Ponting and WA’s Langer and Gilchrist, ended his career in 2012 with a total of 22 centuries, averaging a mammoth 51.53 in tests and 48.16 in ODIs.
In addition to being a Fox Sports Cricket commentator, he has active coaching roles with the Australian cricket side and his former Indian Premier League team, the Chennai Super Kings.
Mike and his wife Amy are proud parents to their four children Jasmin, William, Molly and Oscar.
In 2017, Mike and Amy were announced as WIRF’s inaugural ambassadors following the extremely premature births of Molly (2007) and Oscar (2012).
Mike and Amy continue to champion WIRF’s pioneering work into preventing preterm birth and saving other families the heartache and emotional rollercoaster they had to endure.
Adding to his philanthropic portfolio, Mike is also an Ambassador at the Starlight Children's Foundation.
