Mike Hussey has revealed how he feared he'd lose his wife and premature daughter this year. Braden Quartermaine reports in the Herald Sun.

Only two days after her husband helped Australia win cricket's World Cup in the West Indies in May, Amy Hussey was taken to hospital with serious complications 25 weeks into her pregnancy.

While Amy spent three weeks in hospital before giving birth to Molly, Australia's star middle-order batsman visited her every day while looking after daughter Jasmin, 3, and son William, 18 months, at home by himself.
