In a bid to impart his cricketing expertise, former Australian batsman Michael Hussey joined South Africa's training session on Wednesday along with consultant Gary Kirsten ahead of key World Cup clash against India on Sunday in Melbourne.

Reflecting on Hussey's involvement, current coach Russell Domingo said that Hussey was a middle order batter of immense experience and knows conditions very well in Australia, adding that he would be playing a very low-key role in the background, Sport24 reported.
