Hussey, who represented Victoria in 87 Sheffield Shield matches including winning three Shield titles and captaining his state 21 times, was appointed to the role in August 2022 to oversee the men's program and be involved in selection after moving on from his head coaching role with Melbourne Stars in the BBL. Victoria made two Shield finals, in 2022-23 and 2025-26, and a One-Cup Final, in 2024-25, during Hussey's tenure - although they have missed out on silverware - and he has overseen a contract list build that has focused heavily on the development of home grown Victorian players.

All the Australian state squads for the 2026-27 season Chris Rogers signs two-year extension with Victoria chasing an elusive Shield title CV general manager of cricket performance Graham Manou paid tribute to Hussey's contribution to the state program. "David's influence on the organisation and the broader Victorian cricket community is immeasurable," Manou said. "Through his passion for the game, commitment to excellence and investment in people, David has helped strengthen the foundations of our male high-performance program while leaving a lasting legacy across Victorian cricket." The news comes after Victoria re-signed coach Chris Rogers for a further two seasons following a third Shield final appearance in five seasons.
