By IANS News January 23, 2025 • 09:50 AM View: 1109

Australian Cricket Hall: Michael Clarke was inducted into the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame on Thursday at the Sydney Cricket Ground, becoming the 64th cricketer to receive the honour. The 43-year-old former captain had a remarkable 12-year international career, during which he played 115 Tests, 245 ODIs and 34 T20Is, amassing over 17,000 runs.

As captain, Clarke led Australia in 47 Tests, including the memorable 5-0 Ashes victory in 2013-14, and guided the team to a historic ODI World Cup triumph at home in 2015, shortly before retiring.

Clarke's batting legacy includes 28 Test centuries, the sixth-most by an Australian, highlighted by a remarkable 329* at the SCG against India, a debut century of 151 in Bengaluru, a brilliant 151 in Cape Town, and an emotional 128 in Adelaide following the tragic death of Phillip Hughes.
