Michael Clarke has revealed a major career move just days after being inducted into the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame. The former Test captain, 43, made a successful transition into the media after retiring from the sport in 2015. Clarke has hosted Sky Racing's Big Sports Breakfast for five years alongside footy legend Laurie Daley and Gerard Middleton - but on Tuesday confirmed he won't be returning in 2025.

The man affectionately known as 'Pup' will instead continue to work on his Beyond 23 cricket podcast - plus delve into business and commentary opportunities. 'I want to commit 100 per cent and give it everything I have,' he said. 'I also found it quite difficult last year trying to be in two places at once with my overseas work and radio, and it looks like I will be spending more time away for business moving forward.'.

On January 23, Clarke accepted the Hall of Fame honour on at the SCG, as the 64th inductee. Making his first-class debut for NSW at 17, Clarke captained Australia to victory in the 2015 ODI World Cup and led the side across 47 of his 115 career Tests.
