ADELAIDE: Michael Hussey's brother David may get a chance to make his one-day debut against India after he was added to the Australian cricket team as cover for Michael Clarke, who is recovering from a rib injury.
    
Clarke bruised his ribs during Australia's win over Sri Lanka in a tri-series match on Friday at Perth.
    
"David Hussey has been added to the Australian squad as a stand-by player for tomorrow's Commonwealth Bank Series one-day international match against India at the Adelaide Oval," National Selection Panel Chairman Andrew Hilditch said
in a statement.
    
"Hussey has been placed on stand-by after Michael Clarke suffered bruised ribs during yesterday's Commonwealth Bank Series match against Sri Lanka at the WACA. He will join the Australian squad in Adelaide tomorrow morning," he added.
    
Hussey's international experience is limited to a Twenty20 match against India on February 1, in which he did not get a chance to bat and his only contribution in the game was taking a catch of Robin Uthappa.
