Mike Hussey & Haddin record stand has Oz on top

Brisbane, Nov 27 (Delhi Metro Nation)) Mike Hussey and Brad Haddin combined to beat a record set in the Don Bradman era to guide Australia into a domninant 436-5 at tea today on the third day of the first Ashes test against England.

Hussey was unbeaten on 176 at the interval, six shy of his highest test score of 182 against Bangladesh in 2006.

Haddin had 134 and Australia had a 176-run first-innings lead.

Their unbeaten stand of 293 surpassed the record partnership at Brisbane’s Gabba ground, beating Sir Donald Bradman and Lindsay Hassett’s mark of 276 set 64 years ago.

Haddin brought up his hundred in spectacular style, stepping down the pitch to loft spinner Graeme Swann for six over long on. Hussey comfortably moved past 150.
