Video highlights of Australian captain Michael Clarke’s 329-run innings against India at the Sydeny Cricket Ground (SCG) on Thursday.
Clarke became the sixth Australian batsman to reach the magical 300 run mark, after Sir Donald Bradman (twice), Bob Simpson, Bob Cowper, Mark Taylor and Matthew Hayden.
The triple ton was Clarke’s first in his career. Resuming at the overnight score of 251, Clarke achieved his highest score at his ground.
He surpassed Sir Donald Bradman's record of highest score by an Australian captain. He achieved the milestone in 432 deliveries hitting 37 boundaries and a six to achieve this feat. Bradman's had scored 270 runs against England in 1937.
