Why do you think Clarke called it a day? It was a perfect opportunity and it doesn't come around too often..if any

good call...but we never have sacrificed a win for a record. when Lara scored dat 400 it was better to save protect against a westindian defeat at the time

why..well its something the americans call running up the score. I think it was clear the Indians are beaten, that their deficit is beyond them and there was no point in going on further

piling on wud not have added to a positive impression of Clarke in the end and I belive he decided that alls well that ends well
