Also I said they were never able to recover as in they were never able to recover during the Ashes series. I didn't mean they would never win a test again. Just not one in Australia that summer because they were so shell shocked by what happened in Brisbane
And people will forget johnson because he was a bowler of two series only, whereas they will.alwqys remember jimmy for he's the legend of the game . One of the GOATs
@@ammarkhalid9398 people will remember anderson for his stats, and mich johnson for his character. anderson's in the stat books, while johnson is in every australian heart.
Love it! This is why we love the ashes. Mitchell Johnson tearing through the English is one of the best things I have seen. And when Anderson is swinging the ball through the air it's great to watch too.
I get what you are saying but trash talking isn't always bad. In UFC they always do that. Even the greatest strikers like Connor McGregor etc trash talk a lot.
Got a lot of respect for Clarkey. As a Brit, it hurts saying it but he is a top, top player and a top, top pro. Heat of the moment stuff such as this is fine by me. You need that aggression to be successful in professional sport. Good on him. Everything he said in this interview is spot on.
This sort of stuff gets said regularly on a cricket field. When you have a really aggressive fast bowler intimidation and getting in the batman's head is the number one tactic to get someone out. To say he's a bad captain for sticking to the plan is laughable. As far as field placings and bowler changes go, Michael Clarke is the best captain I've seen in 25 years of watching cricket. Some of the things that I've heard and had said to me during a game of cricket make this sound like a verse from the Bible. And James Anderson is known to be one of the worst sledgers in international cricket, he's been having a running battle with Australia for a decade
@@sandsplasherasmr1865 longevity itself is not the only yardstick to measure greatness he said there that performing consistently in different conditions also matter u better listen to it again
He was the worst Aussie captain in living memory, way worse than Kim Hughes. His blubbering and complaining that the pitches weren't to his liking during his last series in England was the most embarrassing thing I think I've ever seen from an Australian cricketer.
So what do you base being "respectable and legendary" on? Do you know of the community work done by many cricketers / sporting people that rarely gets reported on or do you react to what you observe on TV?
I grew to like Clarke over the years. Didn't like him when he came onto the scene as pup but he proved me wrong with some exceptional summer performances. He admits he shouldn't have used that language (and he shouldn't have). He was a deserving Test Captain.
I was like woah Michael clarke and I get that he was defending debutant George Bailey at the time. He was just standing up for his players and I don't really blame him for using his language but accidently said near the stump mic
James Anderson deserved it, he sledges so much but as soon as someone sledges back to him, he cries about and complains. He said he was going to punch Bailey in the face, Clarke had every right to defend Bailey and sledge back to Anderson.
Get ready for a broken f***ing legacy! Michael Clarke will always be remembered as the Captain who brought a World Number One Australian side to England and got SLAUGHTERED!

A1r80rn3 Australians are famous in terms of sledging. I respect Brett Lee, Gilchrist. Look at these players. No matter they score or not their manner their sportsmanship and respecting opposition will never be forget.

They will always be remembered+ Ponting, Clarke, Smith) as a captain who can go on any level to make a batsman out, ready to argue with umpires and fighting if 3rd umpire gives a correct decision against them. In the current Australian team i find no sportsmanship to respect their opposition, n if a batsman is not out, n umpire gives out.. u can set an example of calling that batsman again. These things wud always be remembered bt i find no one. Just hungry for sledging. No calmness only looking ways for wickets n if not getting.. then using their sledging as their last weapon.
I don't think he was an effective captain or leader, but during the end of the video he makes some good points. Players should be assessed by their overall performance, not moments or individual innings.
Clarke doesn't understand that Cricket is not only about being a good player, and that the attitudes towards opposition players also matter. Anyone can be just a good cricketer or a captain, but you need manners, good conduct and humility to be defined as being a truly classy cricketer. Clarke will never be classy because he's so immature that he'd say anything to defend his pride over truly petty issues
If you think that's poor conduct you haven't seen much cricket, especially club cricket you should hear the stuff coming from silly point. Furthermore, it's okay for Andersen to start incidents but not okay for Clarke to finish them? If you aren't aggressive and passionate about the game, you probably don't have what it takes to be an international player.
Not a thing mentioned about why Clarke said it? He said it after Anderson said he was going to punch Bailey in the face. What do you think is worse - captain hinting he is about to have some short stuff bowled to him or a batsman threatening to assault a fielder?

people be saying he regrets saying it but he really means he wanted to stand up for his players and he wanted him to know that he wasn’t gonna take that from then and hurt his players
After reading autobiographies from the great Cricket players along with following their interviews and stories etc. This sledging from Clarke is relatively minor compared to in the past.
The good thing about the Australian media is that they ask tough questions of their players, and aren't afraid to call them out on their behaviour. Credit to Clarke for doing the interview as well. Way different to NZ where the media are just sycophants and totally biased.
I am an Indian but Ashes to me is THE series to watch. Australia have been my favourite team for a very long time now (along with South Africa) and obviously I was cheering for Aussies but this incident kinda hurt me. Aussies are so good at the sport so I never understood the need for sledging to begin with.
Newsflash - Feb 9th 2021 Sir Jimmy Anderson rattles off 2 Indian batsmen who had been instrumental in beating Australia on their home turf a couple of months earlier. In one over. At the age of 38. Who are these retired Australians again?
Year 2000: Australian players sledge, Australia wins matches Year 2010: Australian players sledge, Australia sometimes wins matches Year 2020: Australian players sledge, Australia doesn't win any match. Atleast they've managed to keep the sledging a constant.
I think the ACB and Australian media tend to put too much pressure on their teams and players. Not balancing it out with actually building them up. Resulting in some dodgy behaviour sometimes or general fallouts. I also think the pressure and captaincy broke guys like Ponting, Clarke, and even Smith. Guys like Steve Waugh thrived on it though. But guys like Waugh, with that strong mental toughness is rare. Most guys need to know you stand behind them, especially in the tough periods. I dont think they get that in Australia. Btw: I am not Australian.
Clarke has had to show contrition on many occasions, certainly as captain. Having someone like Ponting as a leader didn't really offer many examples of humility and sportsmanship, but it taught him how to be ruthless and a world class batsman. I personally think like a lot of word class sportsmen, he has a different side to him on and off the field. He speaks well and often says the right things when it's time to be contrite. But he'll always cross the line on the field.
Jamie Smith lol 60 all out cus they can't beat anyone outside of Australia all Australians post loads of videos of Australia win ashes because it's the only time they'll win
Jamie Smith 60 all out. 5-0 is the just the way it goes, it’s unstoppable sometimes. But 60 all out. That will never happen again. So thank you Australia. You haven’t brought the world much, but what you have bought has been gold. ;) X
Clarke You are a legend and Its good that you accepted being regretful. it’s not sth a youngster aussie would like to look up to. Current Aus team is far away from what is was like in Clarke’s time. Ashes at Aus would be interesting to see 😊
Clarke is like "I regret it. I don't regret saying it, I don't regret threating a No. 11 batsmen of breaking a bone, I only regret it cuz everyone heard it." What a looser. Fantastic batsman, terrible captain.
What his regret was, was the language that he used, what he said was standing up for George Bailey, and if anything gave James Anderson an advantage if he already knew what Mitchell Johnson was bowling.
It's setting a bad example. Especially as a captain. It's not what the sport is about. Maybe in football or you Australian football but not cricket. Australia is the tumour of this planet
Clarke is a strong character who sticks to his principles. Nothing wrong with what he said. I hated him when he was playing and that was because I felt he was was one of the toughest nuts to crack in the opposition. And that's the greatest compliment I can give him.
So, Clarke's ONLY regret was telling Anderson what Johnson's plan was! No doubt he would have put this down to 'banter' if Johnson HAD actually broken his arm. The man's a disgrace, still when you have crime in your genes, what do you expect?
Johnson may not have broken Anderson's arm but he broke Anderson's rib. Hahaha. Get out of here pommy, I wouldn't be pointing the finger if I were you. Cough, cough Stuart Broad, cough cough...*
Johnson was one of those Aussie players you really loved to hate along with the likes of Haddin etc but Micheal Clarke certainly went down in my estimation after that .
Andersen was complaining that the fielder at short leg was moving forward as the ball was being bowled. At that position your.not allowed to do anything to distract the batsman as the bowler starts his run - so he justifiably complained. He also said pushing like that risked him getting hit in the head - so Clarke said what he said. He was fined after the match by the umpires, neither umpire knew it had been overheard on the mic. Andersen warned the player could get a hurt hand - then Clarke said what he said. His teams sledging was deliberately personal and adjudged inappropriate by the match officials. So from then on they handed out fines.
seriously a bit of language, for this level of intensity and drama...like an episode of revenge or housewives, just what cricket loves and always needs......ripper series, ripper captain, ripper sport.
One thing that changed the Australian approach so dramatically and probably forever -the sandpaper scandal. Juts took the steam out of them. They dont sledge anymore the way they used to.
Every Australian is a gentleman when retired.
Yup can confirm about Glenn McGrath
Absolutely true ..!

Finally some honesty and realisation from the man who tied down tendulkar's legs,preventing him getting a run.
Such mature comments! Truly appreciate as always
The good thing about the Australian media is that they ask tough questions of their players, and aren't afraid to call them out on their behaviour. Credit to Clarke for doing the interview as well. Way different to NZ where the media are just sycophants and totally biased.
I am an Indian but Ashes to me is THE series to watch. Australia have been my favourite team for a very long time now (along with South Africa) and obviously I was cheering for Aussies but this incident kinda hurt me. Aussies are so good at the sport so I never understood the need for sledging to begin with.
Coz you are another overstayr in Aus
Cricket - Game of Gentlemen 👏👏
Newsflash - Feb 9th 2021
Sir Jimmy Anderson rattles off 2 Indian batsmen who had been instrumental in beating Australia on their home turf a couple of months earlier. In one over. At the age of 38.
Who are these retired Australians again?
Year 2000: Australian players sledge, Australia wins matches
Year 2010: Australian players sledge, Australia sometimes wins matches
Year 2020: Australian players sledge, Australia doesn't win any match.
Atleast they've managed to keep the sledging a constant.
It's funny that Indians are trying to mock Australia on not winning matches
I think the ACB and Australian media tend to put too much pressure on their teams and players. Not balancing it out with actually building them up. Resulting in some dodgy behaviour sometimes or general fallouts.
I also think the pressure and captaincy broke guys like Ponting, Clarke, and even Smith. Guys like Steve Waugh thrived on it though. But guys like Waugh, with that strong mental toughness is rare. Most guys need to know you stand behind them, especially in the tough periods. I dont think they get that in Australia.
Btw: I am not Australian.
Yet to see an Australian cricketer that lived with conscience
Clarke has had to show contrition on many occasions, certainly as captain. Having someone like Ponting as a leader didn't really offer many examples of humility and sportsmanship, but it taught him how to be ruthless and a world class batsman. I personally think like a lot of word class sportsmen, he has a different side to him on and off the field. He speaks well and often says the right things when it's time to be contrite. But he'll always cross the line on the field.
Clarke and Australia went on to win 5-0. Lol England, good form
Jamie Smith what happened in the 2015 ashes? lmao ...Clarke had to retire along with Bitchell Johnson after a shitty form in the series.
Jamie Smith lol 60 all out cus they can't beat anyone outside of Australia all Australians post loads of videos of Australia win ashes because it's the only time they'll win
Jamie Smith
60 all out.
5-0 is the just the way it goes, it’s unstoppable sometimes.
But 60 all out.
That will never happen again.
So thank you Australia.
You haven’t brought the world much, but what you have bought has been gold.
;)
X
Ashutosh Hegde Johnson didn’t retire after that series you knob
+Cameron Glover lol ikr. Suck it england u pile of trash
Clarke You are a legend and Its good that you accepted being regretful. it’s not sth a youngster aussie would like to look up to.
Current Aus team is far away from what is was like in Clarke’s time.
Ashes at Aus would be interesting to see 😊
Respect and sportsman spirit more important than winning
The bloke was a worm inside the Australian cricket team.
"Infamous"? "[D]efined the Ashes…"? I think the interviewer is sensationalising.
An Aussie will remain an Aussie, will always sledge. I think they have a practice session kept just for sledging and how to handle sledging.
Yep...and it's usually and English coach that conducts the sessions.
I think you can always judge someone better in victory than defeat,
i love ur thoughts now
love from india n Australia
Summary of interview: "don't judge me"
That's your summary, I guess
Clarke is like "I regret it. I don't regret saying it, I don't regret threating a No. 11 batsmen of breaking a bone, I only regret it cuz everyone heard it." What a looser. Fantastic batsman, terrible captain.
'loser'
LamboWalker 5-0
+Big daddy Jamal yeah you mean 5-0 in the odi series against south africa.
What his regret was, was the language that he used, what he said was standing up for George Bailey, and if anything gave James Anderson an advantage if he already knew what Mitchell Johnson was bowling.
Regrets getting caught not wishing physical injury on another human being
Clark didn’t learn to respect opponents then... nothing has changed today either
I love u clarkeee...no matter what
This example of sledging is so crude and uncalled for. I'm all for sledging but threatening physical injury is just lazy and pathetic.
Your talking about Anderson threatening to punch Bailey, right?
@@xanpenguin754 u been on the benzos lad?
Absolutely nothing wrong with that what so ever.
Agreed
It's setting a bad example. Especially as a captain. It's not what the sport is about. Maybe in football or you Australian football but not cricket. Australia is the tumour of this planet
Clark was a very very good Australian captain. Great record as captain and as a batter 28 test hundreds a score over 300 elite player.
He did win us the ashes and the world cup
Sir Jimmy Anderson's stats and place in the history of cricket make "Pup" Clarke look even more silly now
Succeeded over a long period of time in different conditions all over the world??no way, jimmy may have had his moments
Big man with your fast bowler against a number ten. Really brave standing up for your vulnerable players there. Jesus, Aussies.
Clarke is a strong character who sticks to his principles. Nothing wrong with what he said.
I hated him when he was playing and that was because I felt he was was one of the toughest nuts to crack in the opposition. And that's the greatest compliment I can give him.
I love seeing the actual sledging going on between Eng and aus fans in the comment section
I had to have a giggle. You should have heard the Aussies in the crowd when Archer was bowling short and aggressive last day at Lord’s.
So, Clarke's ONLY regret was telling Anderson what Johnson's plan was! No doubt he would have put this down to 'banter' if Johnson HAD actually broken his arm.
The man's a disgrace, still when you have crime in your genes, what do you expect?
+Ben Brown hahahahHHHAhahahahajHHahHAa
Johnson may not have broken Anderson's arm but he broke Anderson's rib. Hahaha. Get out of here pommy, I wouldn't be pointing the finger if I were you. Cough, cough Stuart Broad, cough cough...*
Ben Brown He’s an Pom
He is called " PUP " what breed 🤔
One of the best captain of Australian team....
Johnson was one of those Aussie players you really loved to hate along with the likes of Haddin etc but Micheal Clarke certainly went down in my estimation after that .
hahahahaa, couldnt break an egg at the moment hahahaa,
Clarke still was upset that his ex fiance Bingle kept calling him Mr Empty Pants.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
And now he got farewell the way he deserves.
The most underrated Aussie skipper and one of the most highly misunderstood Australian cricketer of all time.
Clarke is exactly right .
spoken like a captain!
This is not called as sledging. This is called Abusing. Something which Australians need to be educated about.
Andersen was complaining that the fielder at short leg was moving forward as the ball was being bowled. At that position your.not allowed to do anything to distract the batsman as the bowler starts his run - so he justifiably complained. He also said pushing like that risked him getting hit in the head - so Clarke said what he said. He was fined after the match by the umpires, neither umpire knew it had been overheard on the mic. Andersen warned the player could get a hurt hand - then Clarke said what he said. His teams sledging was deliberately personal and adjudged inappropriate by the match officials. So from then on they handed out fines.
seriously a bit of language, for this level of intensity and drama...like an episode of revenge or housewives, just what cricket loves and always needs......ripper series, ripper captain, ripper sport.
James Anderson is one of the greatest swing bowlers in the world , who nobody sadly acknowledges.
what?? nobody acknowledges?
Absolute LEGEND. LOVE YOU PUP❤️. 🇦🇺🔥
One thing that changed the Australian approach so dramatically and probably forever -the sandpaper scandal. Juts took the steam out of them. They dont sledge anymore the way they used to.
Thanks TH-cam it only took you 5 years
I think alim dar handled the situation quite well..legendary umpire..in my personal opinion..
I love how much fun Bailey was having
Anderson had the last laugh. Clarke was his bunny in the end.
Johnson just ate them alive in that series.... greateat comeback ever
