So far the ongoing One-Day International series (ODI) for Australia has been anything but a cake walk. They have been completed outplayed across departments time and again by India. It was only in the third ODI at Indore, that Australia’s batting looked dangerous courtesy Aaron Finch. Finch’s 124 ensured Australia made a respectable total despite suffering a late collapse.

Watching Australia have such a miserable time with the bat, former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh has requested Michael Clarke to come out of retirement. Harbhajan has tormented Australians the most ever since his hat-trick in the 2001 Eden Gardens Test. “Mate u [you] need to come out of your retirement and start playing again I think,” Singh tweeted.

 

He further stated that the era of great Australian batsmen is gone. “Era of Aussies producing top batsmans is over I feel. No quality,” his tweet said. Clarke has retired from Test post The Ashes in 2015.

Both Clarke and Harbhajan are expert commentators on a Indian news channel.

Australia currently trail the five ODI series 0-3. Only saving grace for them will be if they deny India a series white-wash. The ODIs will be followed by a three T20I series
