Clark, an Australian citizen, was born in Khartoum, Sudan,[1][2] and obtained his Bachelor of International Studies at Flinders University.[3] While studying for a degree at the University of Oxford, where he was a Rhodes Scholar,[3] Clark made a single first-class appearance for Oxford UCCE against Worcestershire at University Parks in 2002.[4] Clark took a single wicket in Worcestershire's first-innings total of 523/6 declared, that of Anurag Singh to finish with figures of 1/72 from thirteen overs. He was dismissed for a duck by Alamgir Sheriyar in Oxford UCCE's first-innings total of 145, while in Worcestershire's second-innings he bowled four wicketless overs in their total of 159/6. With a target of 538 to chase, Oxford UCCE could only manage 205 all out, with Clark ending that innings not out on 0. Worcestershire won the match by 332 runs.[5] This was his only major appearance for Oxford UCCE.

After his cricket match, Clark later got his Doctor of Philosophy in Politics from Oxford, and he later became a political scientist specialising in war and post-war issues and a Professor of International Politics at the SOAS University of London.[3]
