Hughes, aged just 20, tried to cut a short ball from Dale Steyn in the first over of the match and was caught behind.

"He was disappointed," said Clarke, who made 151 in his Test debut against India in Bangalore in 2004, aged 23.

Johannesburg, Feb. 25: Australian vice-captain Michael Clarke knows that he is racing against the clock to prove his fitness for the first Test against South Africa.

The Age quoted Clarke as saying last night that he needed to power through Australia''s final two training sessions to be seen as a guaranteed starter at the Wanderers Ground tomorrow.

He was Australia''s leading batsman against South Africa in the recent 2-1 series defeat and losing him would be a savage blow to the tourists.

Johannesburg, Feb 22 : Australian Vice-Captain Michael Clarke is likely to be ruled out of the first Test match against South Africa due to a serious back injury. The first Test match will start on Thursday.

His unavailability for the first Test match would be serious blow for Kangaroos who have lost their number one spot in recent times.
