Captain Clarke says three-wicket win against WI as good as any other victory
Michael Clarke described Australia’s come-from-behind first Test win against the West Indies in Barbados as one of his best ever. The tourists reached their target of 192 with three wickets remaining as darkness engulfed Kensington Oval on a dramatic final day.u00a0The West Indies were seemingly in control of the Test in the first innings, posting 449 and restricting Australia to 285 for eight at one stage before man of the match Ryan Harris fought back with an unbeaten 68. Harris forged partnerships with tail-enders Ben Hilfenhaus and Nathan Lyon to rescue Australia’s innings before Clarke boldly declared at 406 for nine.
