Clarke is not into those type of things he is just one of those great cricketers called Aussies

Yes, I did. So did 12 of us.
Infact I have reported it to the ICC as well. here is the content of my email.
I would like to highlight the over before lunch on 29th Dec 07.
Channel 9’s camera’s caught Stuart Clarke picking out the seam of the ball with his fingernail. Surrounded by Brett Lee and Andrew Symonds!(Hmm…interesting….wonder if that’s why he was so successful….)
There was a nervous murmur as the commentary team went dead at that moment for a few nervous seconds…..only then the stupid cameraman realised his folly and cut that frame out.
Guess Aussies are above the law, and don’t tamper balls and "there will be no investigation….."I saw, and 12 other people in the room saw this including the kids…..crying shame….they don’t need to do this to beat the Indians!!!

no sorry i did'nt see him scratching the ball..i know a lot of players do scrape the ball to get any dirt or grass out of the seam..but as far as 'tampering' with the ball dont think so,commentators would have been on top of it in one fowl swoop mate...especially with the camera showing it too...

All in your head mate! Clark is Mr 'super clean', it wouldn't occur to him to do that.
