&ldquo;Michael Clarke, to me, should be batting at three but he won&rsquo;t, which I think is crazy. I don&rsquo;t understand why Michael Clarke doesn&rsquo;t go there,&rdquo; Chappell was quoted as saying in the Sydney Morning Herald. <img alt="Michael Clarke" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jul/Michael-Clarke_2.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 454px;" /> Michael Clarke Chappell also said that Clarke is not a typical No.3 batsman but is the best batsman to bat at that position in the current Australian team and David Warner should open the batting with Shane Watson. &ldquo;Long term you&rsquo;ve got to have a decent No 3 but when you haven&rsquo;t got one who&rsquo;s a prototype, then your best player&rsquo;s got to play there and that&rsquo;s Clarke. They also need Warner in the side but they don&rsquo;t need him batting at six. His talents will be diluted if he bats down the order. He should be opening with Shane Watson but I fear he won&rsquo;t be,&rdquo; he added.u00a0
