From the Vault: Michael Clarke's magic over in Sydney

We remember the three-wicket over that sealed victory for Australia over India late on day five of the second Test in 2008

[@samratmanna4918]

Amazed that Clarke, like Smith following him wasn't bowled more - just totally underrated as a handy part timer.

[@Shivian124]

He had persistent back issues. He was a tremendous bowler.

[@dsintheb]

4 year old comment, but the issue with Smith seems to be derived from some elbow injuries he's suffered. He apparently doesn't even bowl in the nets. Still managed to snag a wicket in the latest Ashes series, so maybe he will bowl a bit more part-time now.

[@MLaak86]

@@dsintheb Ah okay, that does make sense - just without knowing that you see them pull these spells out and wonder "why doesn't he bowl more?"

I have watched this match and tough India was going to pull off a draw but alas, Pointing gave the ball to Clarke of all his ballers and the miracle happened with a over spared.

I remember watching that over, the exultation of snatching victory from the jaws of a draw haha. Felt for the two young men who got out and couldn't bring themselves to move, they were both obviously shattered. It's a cruel sport sometimes.

@@sayakmandal3240 "plumb stumping" isnt a real thing. "plumb" refers to LBW not stumping... clearly you dont know cricket. also the symonds stumping wasnt out, as at the point that bails were dislogded he had part of his foot behind the crease. this is the same series where one of the umpires was later banned for being paid by INDIA and BCCI to match fix. get the facts right

[@JoshSamimi2024]

Happy 41th birthday Michael Clarke

[@markcheckley3715]

Much more than a "batsman who bowled a bit", Clarke was an international-class left arm orthodox bowler in the classic mould, and very, very good at it. Had it been his focus, he could easily have made a career out of that side of his game alone. Even as things were, it's a mystery he was not bowled a great deal more than he was.
