Clarke took to social media to pay his respects to his late friend, who would have turned 26 yesterday.
Counting down on Twitter on Saturday night with a drink in hand, the Aussie captain asked the public to join him in paying tribute to the much-loved cricketer.
In 2 hours and 6 min it will be my Brothers 26th BDay. Please get yourself a drink and raise your glass!
