The details about Michael Clark, Cricketer are given below:

Michael John Clarke (born 2 April 1981 in Liverpool, New South Wales) is an Australian cricketer.

Nicknamed 'pup', he is a right-handed batsman, highly-regarded fielder and occasional left-arm orthodox spin bowler. He made his first-class debut for New South Wales as an eighteen year old in the 1999-2000 Australian domestic season. He was dropped from the Test team after a poor Ashes series and subsequent Test matches in late 2005 upon his return to Australia after not scoring a century for a year. Clarke had previously remarked that one of his career aims was to be never get dropped from the Test team. It was announced on 7 March 2006 that he would be included in the Test squad to tour South Africa after making his first ever first-class double century and heavy scoring in ODIs. He was recalled in place of Andrew Symonds for the Test matches in April 2006 against Bangladesh. He now looks to have cemented his place back in the Test side, after he was selected due to Shane Watson's injury ruled him out, with two consecutive centuries in the second and third Tests in the Ashes series to help Australia regain the Ashes.

Clarke quickly began showing his potential, after being fast-tracked into the Australian national team, making his one-day international debut in January 2003 against England. He immediately made a name for himself on the international scene for his aggressive yet mature batting ability.

Clarke was selected to make his Test debut against India at Bangalore, October 2004, despite having a first-class average below 40. He succeeded on debut, scoring 151 and consequently helping Australia to victory, invoking comparisons to past Australian batsmen such as Doug Walters and Mark Waugh. Clarke played a major part in Australia's 2-1 series victory, their first in India in over thirty years, contributing outstanding bowling figures of 6 for 9 in the final Test of the series.

On his return to Australia he made another debut century, his first home Test in Brisbane against New Zealand, becoming one of the few Test cricketers to have achieved the feat of Test centuries on both their home and away debuts.

In recognition of his performance in the 2004 calendar year, he was awarded the Allan Border Medal in 2005.

Clarke played a key role in Australia regaining the Ashes, in 2006-07, repaying the selectors with a useful 54 in his first innings, Clarke went on to score consecutive Test centuries in the second Test in Adelaide, and the third Test in Perth.

Michael Clarke Duncan (born December 10, 1957) is an Oscar-nominated American actor who has starred in a number of successful films.

Duncan grew up in a single-parent household in Chicago. He always wanted to act, but had to drop out of the Communications program at Alcorn State University to support his family when his mother became ill. Duncan's large frame - 6' 5" (195 cm) and 270 lb (122 kg) - helped him in his jobs digging ditches for the People's Gas Company and being a bouncer at different Chicago clubs. Through working at the clubs, he was able to get a security job and ended up in Los Angeles.

In 1985, he tried out for the Chicago Bears and never played a down; however, he was still given a Super Bowl ring.

He took other security jobs while in Los Angeles while trying to get some acting work in commercials. Eventually he was cast in a walk-on role in Ice Cube's Friday. During this time, he continued to work as a bodyguard for celebrities like Will Smith, Martin Lawrence, Jamie Foxx and LL Cool J, all the while doing bit parts in television and films. He was also the bodyguard for Notorious B.I.G. for some time, he let a friend take over for him the night that Notorious B.I.G. was shot. This was the event that made him decide to get out of the bodyguarding business.

In 1998, Duncan was cast as Bear in the film Armageddon, where he struck up a friendship with castmate Bruce Willis. It was Bruce Willis' influence that helped him to get his breakout role in the Frank Darabont-directed, The Green Mile, a role which netted him an Academy Award nomination and a Golden Globe nomination.

Duncan then was cast in a string of films that helped to establish him as a star: The Whole Nine Yards, Planet of the Apes, The Scorpion King (where he starred alongside his friend, The Rock), Daredevil (as The Kingpin) and The Island. Duncan has also provided his voice for a number of roles including Brother Bear and the video games Demon Stone, SOCOM II: U.S. Navy SEALs, The Suffering: Ties That Bind and Soldier of Fortune. In 2005, he starred in the film Sin City as Manute, a powerful mobster. Duncan appeared in a minor role in the 2006 movie Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. In 2006, he voiced the role of Numbuh 26 in the animated movie Codename: Kids Next Door: Operation ZERO. In Saints Row, he appears as Benjamin King, the leader of the Vice Kings street gang/crime syndicate
