Michael Clarke net worth, earnings, background, family and divorce from wife Kyly

Former Australian cricket captain Michael Clarke was fondly known as 'Clarkey' or 'Pup' by his teammates during his playing days. The right-handed middle-order batsman was a highly-appreciated fielder and an occasional left-arm orthodox spin bowler. Clarke remained in the headlines for his exploits on and off the field, especially during the initial stages of his career during which he sported a 'blonde' hairstyle and dated several famous Australian women.

However, he ensured that he had a successful career, having won the 2015 World Cup on home soil as captain. He announced his retirement from all forms of cricket after the final Test of the Ashes series in England the same year.
