During his time with Australia, Clarke scored 8643 runs at an average of 49.10 in 115 Test matches, 7981 runs at an average of 44.58 in 245 ODIs, and 488 runs at 21.21 in 34 T20Is.
On Thursday, Michael Clarke, a former Australian cricket player, was admitted into the Australian Hall of Fame. The 43-year-old has been added to the list as the 64th member.
Clarke remarked, “I’m honored to be able to sit alongside so many wonderful players, idols, and role models growing up as a kid and looking up to.” “You go through a lot when you retire. You now miss chunks of watching cricket as it progresses.
“People talk about your international career when you play at the top level, but for me, it began when I was six years old. It was my life since I retired at the age of 34. I still live with it,” he continued.
“I think cricket is a lot like life in general. After reaching 100, you raise the bat, walk out to field, field in slip, and miss a catch on the second ball of the game, the 43-year-old remarked.Australia won the 2015 World Cup and the renowned 2013–14 Ashes Down Under, where the home team thrashed England 5-0, under Clarke’s captaincy. Clarke’s deployment of Mitchell Johnson throughout the series was praised by commentators and former players.
According to Australian Cricket Hall of Fame chairman Peter King, Michael’s remarkable first-class playing career began at the SCG when he was just 17 years old. This is where many of his highlights, like as a Test triple century against India in 2012, took place.”The Australian public will always remember Michael’s career with fondness, and his status will be regarded alongside those at the top of our game,” he continued.
