Australian skipper Michael Clarke admitted that he has fully recovered from hamstring surgery he had last year, and is aiming to be on top-form during their World Cup quarterfinal clash.
Commenting on his fitness, the skipper said that he had been 100 percent fine, adding that they had looked at his schedule going forward, up to the West Indies [Test tour in June] to be honest, so a lot of things had been put in place, Stuff.co.nz reported.
Ahead of their last group game against Scotland, Clarke said that the fielding drills on Friday was another opportunity to make sure he recover as well as he possibly could get ready for the quarter-final.
Clarke, who opened the batting, scored 47 runs during Australia's seven-wicket win over Scotland on Saturday at Hobart.
