Stuart Clark is a tall and lanky opening bowler who was initially bracketed by the national selectors as "in the Glenn McGrath mould", but he created his own category with strong displays over 24 Tests. He fitted in perfectly in his opening appearances - he replaced McGrath, who was caring for his sick wife - and at the age of 30 experienced a dream start as the Player of the Series with 20 wickets at 15.75 against South Africa. A gamble for the first game at Cape Town, he collected his baggy green and earned his side a victory with 5 for 55 and 4 for 34, the third-best match figures by an Australian debutant behind Bob Massie and Clarrie Grimmett.
