He had courageously played in the opening Test to honour the memory of Phillip Hughes and made a century in the match eventually won by Australia in a thriller with Clarke off the field after sustaining the right hamstring tear.

Clarke Wednesday predicted the nature of the injury sustained by all-rounder Mitchell Marsh, who went off in the second session, and complimented acting Australia skipper Steven Smith. 

"Thanks for all the well wishes. Surgery went really well. The Aust Physio @Alex_Kountouris will update the media this afternoon," the 33-year-old Clarke tweeted.

"A few days of rest and recover and watch the boys play well from my bed."
