El ex capitán de Australia Michael Clarke ha sido incluido en el Salón de la Fama del Cricket de Australia, celebrando su ilustre carrera y liderazgo en el cricket mundial.

Former Australian cricket captain Michael Clarke has been honoured as an inductee into the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame. Clarke, who is 43, accepted this prestigious recognition on Thursday, almost ten years after concluding his great playing career. “To be able to sit along so many wonderful players, idols, role models growing up as a kid and looking up to is something I’m honoured by,” Clarke expressed. He becomes the 64th inductee, with more names expected to be announced later this season.

Clarke’s celebrated career

Michael Clarke began his first-class journey at the tender age of 17 with New South Wales. He captained Australia to victory in the 2015 ODI World Cup and led the team in 47 out of his 115 Test matches. Clarke boasts impressive statistics, with 8643 Test runs, making him the sixth highest for Australia, and 7981 ODI runs, placing him fourth. His 28 Test centuries also rank him sixth on the list. Clarke’s explosive debut in the 2004 India tour, where he scored 151 in Bengaluru, marked his entry into Test cricket. Notably, he scored an unbeaten 329 against India in Sydney in 2011-12.
