CLarke <3 <3 <3

Would love to see him do a Ramdin, pulling out a crudely-written sign saying;

"HEY KATICH
STRANGLE THIS, ****"

Clark!!!! amazing stuff!

Makes me feel good that he's smashing this attack to bits... really what chance did poor ishant sharma and vinay kumar have?

 

[ajdude]

what's the greatest amount of 200+ scores in a calendar year by an individual? statsguru seems like a pain to use for this

 

[Spikey]

'nother 18 for 1000 for the year

 

[Teja.]

The game is set up perfectly for Steynjie to take one wicket and win my ****ing bet.

Jono: I tried for about five minutes to reply by embedding the Kallis jumping up to ball of the century image with "How many did Kallis score this game?" but it's so hard to do basic computer functions on an IPad, it's unbelievable.

put it this way, bradman never did more than 3

 

[Satyanash89]

1000 in a year in 11 innings is surely some sort of record right? or did viv/ bradman/yousuf do it quicker?

 

[Spark]

Absolute machine.

CLARKEHH!

"Madhu tells me that only the Don and Ponting have scored three double-centuries in a year. One of Clarke's was a triple of course. So did the Don, he had a 334."

No idea, only played I CBF checked was Mo Yo who only made the one double, but was out in the nervous 190's 3 times!

I doubt anyone has made over 3 though in a year - 3 in a career is sensational, Viv managed 3, Sobers just the 2.

EDIT - who's madhu??

Bradman did it in 12. So if he gets there, aster than Bradman and Yousuf and Ponting (03).

When did Ponting do it?

EDIT: Looks like it was 2003.

 

[Stapel]

Clarke also averages above 50 now. He only needs 3 more to keep it that way, if he loses his wicket.

I guess his next target is to get the Gabba's top score which is now in the hands of Alistair Cook iirc (235 not out, Ashes 2010/11).

This test reminds me of that one! Just the single wicket for a few hundred runs!

Mathew Sinclair only managed two as well. Elite company to say the least.

yeah probably 2003, i was thinking 06 at first but i don't think he scored any doubles that year did he? he made the two tons in the new years test and the 196 in the gabba test but my memory's ****

Sobers (58) choked. Needed to add another 5 in his 11th innings

1000
