Thing about Clarke is he did alright, but eh, S.R of 63 with 30 runs, thats okay when Watson on 130 at a run a ball, but normally, really needs to keep his S.R at 75 at least.

Hmm... for all the criticism of Clarke (which is mostly warranted), he did leave us (well, rather got off strike and let Watto leave us) in a superb position when we got out.
Any other batsman would've been a better use of those 57 balls though, and been able to take over should Watson have gotten out earlier.

Ugh, shocking grammar. It's almost midnight here, blame it on that.

....And what exactly has Clarke gotta do with that..!? Its Watto who single handedly has kept us going and if anything Clarke is the one who sucked out all the momentum of the innings after the superb opening stand.

Australia just need to work the ones and twos from here on and not do anything silly. It's a huge ground, so they should get ample opportunities.

By not getting out, and getting off strike. That's basically it.

I'm not saying it was a good innings, but if we lose this, with an RRR of 7 when he got out, there'll be much bigger culprits than him
