Clarke set to be replaced for India series after public row
Former captain Michael Clarke is set to be replaced as a commentator on Australia’s looming Test series against India as the fallout from hisMultiple senior cricket sources, who did not wish to be named in order to speak frankly, have confirmed tothat the BCCI, India’s cricket board, is seeking other former players to replace Clarke in the spot he is meant to fill alongside Matthew Hayden for the tour.
Four Tests in Nagpur, Delhi, Dharamshala and Ahmedabad take place from February 9 to March 13, then three ODIs are scheduled for Mumbai, Vizag and Chennai on March 17, 19 and 22. The Indian Premier League starts on March 20.The BCCI has declined multiple requests for comment. India’s governing body employs commentators directly for coverage of home series, before selling the rights to the broadcast feed around the world. Foxtel holds the rights for the forthcoming series.
The fracas involving Clarke and girlfriend Jade Yarbrough in Noosa, brought to light last week, was followed by an immediate and emphatic apology from the ex-Australian men’s skipper, as the “bad look” put numerous corporate and commentary roles in danger.Yarbrough had accused Clarke of allegedly sleeping with his ex-girlfriend Pip Edwards.
“Of course [there is] enormous fascination into Clarkey’s life, and we’re just hitting this on the head straight away, it is a private matter that Clarkey’s obviously been dealing with,” Middleton said.
