Michael Clarke re-aggravates hamstring injury

Australian skipper Michael Clarke re-injured his troublesome hamstring during the first one-day international against South Africa in Perth.

Clarke will have scans on Saturday to determine the extent of the injury and will not play any further part in the game.

He was dismissed for just 11 in Friday’s game, caught behind by Quinton de Kock off the bowling of Proteas paceman Dale Steyn.

George Bailey will step in as captain for the rest of the game.
