The mispronunciation of the word 'success' left Australian cricket captain Michael Clarke momentarily stumped last night during a press conference.
Having just led Australia to a 95-run win over India in the semi-final of the World Cup, Clarke was asked by a journalist at the media conference about the "tremendous sex" he has been enjoying since being appointed captain.
The media contingent as well as Australian vice-captain Steve Smith, who was seated next to Clarke, burst into laughter while the flustered journalist quickly tried to correct himself by explaining he meant to say "tremendous success".
Clarke dealt with the slip of the tongue in good humour responding with: "How well do you know me?"
"It's a question for my wife".
