Michael Ian Coleridge Clarke (21 September 1913 - 10 November 1982) was a Barbadian cricketer. Clarke was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm fast-medium. He was born in Strathclyde in Saint Michael, Barbados.
A member of Spartan Cricket Club, Clarke played two matches for the Barbados national cricket team against Trinidad and Tobago in 1941.[1] [2] In his debut first-class cricket match, he made a century - 153, finally dismissed by Trinidad leg spin bowler Rupert Tang Choon.[3] His second match was played four days later and despite another creditable effort - 42 runs in the first innings - he would never play for Barbados again.[4]
