Um höfundinn
Michael Clarke is one of the most recognisable Australian cricketers to date. He joined the NSW Sheffield Shield team at eighteen and made his international test debut only three years later. He is known for his remarkable batting partnerships with Mike Hussey - who could forget the triple-hundred at the SCG in 2012? - and his often open and frank relationship with the Australian public. He was made the permanent captain of the Australian cricket team, after Ricky Ponting stood down, in 2011.
Walkley Award-winning journalist Malcolm Knox is closely collaborating with Michael on the diaries. Malcolm has held a number of positions at the Sydney Morning Herald including chief cricket correspondent, assistant sport editor and literary editor. He also ghosted Adam Gilchrist's autobiography True Colours, Ben Cousins' My Life Story, and Bart Cummings' My Life.
