Whether they’re at the ground or on the couch at home, every Australian cricket fan thinks they’re an expert, and making brutal assessments about the players is all part of the sport of watching the sport.

As well, Clarke often seemed a bit too flashy for our liking, and sometimes not reverential enough about the game. As you would expect though, the man himself has a very different view.
