Finally one australian made to the count that too in his home country — Yes, australian crowd just got excited like never before but this is the first time a captain who got an unbeaten triple century to his country in the home turf. No other captain includes – Don Bradman, Chappell, Allan Border, Steve Waugh and Ponting did this before.
The only man is Michael Clarke and today in the after lunch session, Clarke just glanced a ball to the covers in Ishant Sharma bowling to reach the milestone – 300 mark in Sydney ground. He became the 21st cricketer to score over triple century.
This year 2012 starting days gave Michael a fresh energy with triple century that too with the most powerful team currently in the ICC rankings – India. Border Gavaskar Trophy 2011-12 will be remembered as Clarke days.
