Epic innings from Clarke in the end. I'm no fan of the Aussies but these sort of narratives are what make test cricket such a great sport

Warne was harping on about what a great captain Clarke is and that he is the best in the world. Recent show of character aside, I think he's a very average Captain and think for tactics, use of resources and stepping up when needed you can't go past McCullum especially given he and MSD are the only captains who take care of all 3 formats of the game. At times MSD is very good as well but I think his captaincy suffers when his big guns don't come off.
