Australian batsman Mike Hussey said on Saturday that his side's rise to World No 1 Test side spot will start with the fifth and the final Ashes Test against England, starting here Monday.
Hussey said Australian cricketers are resolved to start the arduous journey back to the mountain top in 2011 after the downfall in 2010.
"(We need) to try to start the rise again, getting back to where we want to beu00a0-- getting a team together we believe in and sticking with them and hoping to build our way back up.
We'd like to be No 1 in the world. It's going to take time, but it can start now," Hussey was quoted as saying by The Age.
Hussey said that a series-levelling victory in Sydney would not erase the shame of defeat, but it would certainly promote a greater sense of self-belief in the team.
