England pace spearhead James Anderson has branded Australian captain Michael Clarke as 'paranoid' two days before the first Test of the winter Ashes series at the Gabba.

Clarke had revealed in his 'Ashes Diary', which is a book on the summer Ashes, that Anderson went out of his way to ignore him, adding that Anderson had a 'crack at him' in his own book.

However, the Mirror reports that Anderson completely refuted the suggestion, saying that he believes Clarke is being a bit paranoid in thinking that he (Anderson) does not like him, adding that he has nothing against Clarke given that he does not remember seeing him many times outside a game situation.
