Number Cruncher: Least Expensive Five-Wicket Hauls in Tests

#2 Michael Clarke- 6/9 for Australia against India at Mumbai in 2004

Known for his stroke-making abilities, it is surprising to see the former Australian captain feature in this list. He represented Australia in 115 Tests, 245 ODIs and 34 T20Is. Apart from his batting and leadership abilities, Clarke was a more than useful Left-arm orthodox bowler for the Baggy green side.

Clarke playing the fourth Test of his career, on a rank turner picked up six wickets for nine runs (his best bowling figures in Tests) to destroy the mighty Indian batting lineup in the fourth and final Test of the series held in 2004. His bowling efforts helped Australia restrict the Indians to 205.

Injuries over the course of his career meant that Clarke had to give up on his bowling and his contribution to the side was through his batting and agile fielding skills.
