Australia v India - Second Test: Day 2

The former Australian captain Michael Clarke remains one of the best middle-order batsmen to have ever played for the country and along with Mike Hussey, he formed one of the most prolific batting partnerships in the country's cricket history. Both of them batted in the middle-order for Australia in all the three separate formats of the game and the pair formed one of the most formidable partnerships in recent history.

They were both excellent against spin and their abilities against fast bowling were beyond any doubt. When both were on form, they were quite unstoppable and the results were an aggregate of 5755 runs in 119 innings in which they batted together. Clarke and Hussey put up century-plus stands 16 times and crossed the 50 run mark on 23 occasions.
