http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Clarke-c1978 hopeful of playing the side match ahead of the Test series against West Indies – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 Cricket Board President's XI in Barbados ahead of the Test series in West Indies.
Clarke strained his hamstring during the tri-nation tournament in Australia and that was the reason why he could not take part in the finals of the event against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758. The injury kept Clarke out of the limited-overs series against West Indies last month
and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Watson-c2558 had to lead the Kangaroos in Clarke’s absence.  
However, the right-handed middle-order batsman is back in the Test team and is geared up to perform well in the series in the Caribbean. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750
last year.
The cricketer from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-South-Wales-c823 is all set to return to cricket during the practice game before the Test series starts.
Clarke said, "The hamstring is coming along well. If all goes well at training tomorrow, I will be playing in our tour game starting Monday."
So far, the Caribbean boys have shown immense fighting spirit against the Aussies in the on-going tour. The One Day International series and the T20 series ended in a tie.
Since the last couple of decades, West Indies have been struggling at the highest stage of the game but http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DJG-Sammy-c1382 and company have shown signs of improvement recently. There have been some very talented young cricketers coming through the ranks of junior
cricket in the Caribbean.
While talking about the upcoming Test series, Sammy expressed that his team will not go down without fighting. He understands that the Kangaroos will start the series as favorites but feels that his men will give their best in the encounter.
"We are going to carry that same mentality in the Tests. That is what we have got to keep telling the boys, once we believe, we can achieve. We are going to play fearless cricket when we are at home," the West Indies captain added.
