Australian coach Darren Lehmann has backed skipper Michael Clarke, saying the latter would be given enough time to get back into the form.

Lehmann also said that Clarke would get his full support in case he wanted to shuffle down the order, stuff.co.nz reported.
Former skipper Ricky Ponting, however, considered it as a foolish move and said that it would send a bad message.
34-year-old Clark earlier admitted that he failed to contribute in the side's eight-wicket loss at Edgbaston that resulted in England to take 2-1 lead.
Clarke, who has been struggling with his batting form, has scored just 94 runs in six innings in the first three Ashes tests.
