Hussey, Hilfenhaus to miss India clash

Mike Hussey and Ben Hilfenhaus have been ruled out of contention for Australia's Commonwealth Bank Series ODI encounter with India in Adelaide.

Hussey was part of the side that helped Australia to a five-run victory over Sri Lanka in the three-team series on Friday, but the veteran batsman will be rested for Sunday's match to be replaced by Mitchell Marsh.

"Mike Hussey is to be rested and will not travel with the squad to Adelaide while Ben Hilfenhaus has returned to Hobart and will not join the squad for tomorrow's (Sunday's) match," Cricket Australia said.

Australia are currently unbeaten in the series and remain favourites to win it.
