On Monday afternoon, The Age ran an article stating that the BCCI was now looking for another former player to take Clarke’s place as a commentator. The other former Australian player scheduled to join the commentary panel for the series is Matthew Hayden.
Minutes afterward, The Daily Telegraph reported that Indian cricket executives had been “having secret talks” with former Australian players regarding possible Clarke replacements.
The information was later revised to state that Fox Cricket pundit Mark Waugh was being considered to take over for Clarke.
What exactly happened between Michael Clarke and Jade Yarbrough? Clarke and his PARTNER Jade Yarbrough got into a public argument. The Daily Telegraph first published footage of the ugly spat. On January 10, an onlooker in Noosa captured Clarke and her companion on camera outside of a restaurant.
Yarbrough is heard in the tape accusing Clarke of having an affair with Pip Edwards, a celebrity fashion designer and former Aussie skipper’s ex.
The 41-year-old is heard vehemently disputing the assertion. During the yelling, his companion was spotted smacking him across the face.
The incident is being looked into by Queensland Police, but no charges have been brought.
