AUSTRALIA has named Mike Hussey in its 15-man World Cup squad despite a hamstring injury so severe it may require surgery.
Victorian fast-medium all-rounder John Hastings is the bolter in the squad, forcing out state team-mate Peter Siddle.
Brett Lee's dream of playing another World Cup after a number of serious injuries was realised when he was included along with another short game pace specialist, Shaun Tait.
