Clark, a diplomat and an ICC Hall of Famer, was not offended and expressed the views below to Yahoo-Sport Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;What an inning it was, especially considering the situation,&#8221; she told Yahoo Sport Australia. &#8220;I think it&#8217;s great, and I&#8217;m happy for Glenn and the team. The comparison to my innings is a talking point that can help further recognize women&#8217;s sports. It was a long time ago, in 1997, so I welcome him to the club.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked if she was upset at being overlooked in some reports, Clark replied, &#8220;My view is that we need to respect performances regardless of gender. There is room for everyone. However, the error is usually one-way traffic. Women have been playing international cricket since 1934.&#8221; Related Yahoo Sports articles can be read <a href=\"https:\/\/au.sports.yahoo.com\/cricket-belinda-clark-responds-glenn-maxwell-historic-world-cup-innings-sparks-snub-020442849.html\">here<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ph\/8yJat\">Archived<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is essential to be accurate when reporting on sporting achievements, especially regarding milestones like double centuries.
