Australian batsman Michael Hussey who had been playing for the Chennai Super Kings in the Champions League, has made an early exit from the cricket tournament due to 'personal reasons'.

A Chennai Super Kings official confirmed the batsman had gone home and would not take any further part in the tournament, the Sydney Morning Herald reports.

According to the paper, Chennai are out of contention for the semi-finals but have one more match left in the event, against Yorkshire in Durban on Monday.

Hussey had played only one match in the Champions League, making 16 against the Sydney Sixers, the paper said.

Earlier, Hussey had also endorsed Cricket Australia's controversial decision to send all-rounder Shane Watson home early from the Twenty20 event.
