To be playing Clarke in the first two ODIs would have been an utter, unforgivable travesty given the schedule we have and the fact that we and everyone else knew that he was carrying a hamstring injury that he has had before and which has put him out of entire series because we rushed him back.

I would sooner rest the entire XI for an entire home ODI series than put our most important players at risk at the top of a year where we play the three of the most important series for any Australian team.
