Michael Clarke adds to his tattoo collection and gets some surprise ink in India after denying cosmetic surgery rumours

Michael Clarke has added to his tattoo collection.

The cricketer, 43, took to Instagram to share images of himself getting inked at Body Canvas Tattoo studio in Mumbai by artist Vikas Malani. 

Malani previously tattooed the sports star in 2018.

In one clip posted to his stories, the 43-year-old held onto a small puppy following the session and chose to cover up his new ink.

The father-of-one has been collecting tattoos for over a decade, and famously had the initials of his former girlfriend Lara Bingle inked on his bicep in 2007.

In 2010, shortly after splitting from Lara, he had his parents’ first names etched onto his torso in Hindi script. 

Michael also had the phrase ‘Carpe Diem’ tattooed on his lower left arm in 2016, and inked the number 11 inked on his hand in 2019 to represent his stellar 11-year cricketing career. 

It comes after the former cricketer recently hit back at speculation he’s had cosmetic injectables after sparking speculation he uses Botox and filler to maintain his youthful looks.

Rumours went into overdrive in March after the cricket appeared in TV footage during the Pakistan Super League.

Michael has barely aged a day in the last decade, looking as youthful at 42 as he did in his early thirties when he was a Test cricket captain.

The Manse founder Dr Naomi McCullum told Daily Mail Australia Michael may have undergone several cosmetic procedures, including Botox and filler, and has new bright white veneers.

‘Michael’s eye area is quite different in recent pictures,’ the Dr Naomi Skin founder said.

‘The brows are higher and his upper eyelids are further away from his upper lash line.

‘These things may be due to Botox or surgery or cosmetic treatments combined with ageing. 

‘There seems to be repositioning of the the fat in his face from ageing.

‘His face looks fuller in general, and this may be due to age related changes, fillers or weight changes or a combination of these things.’

Dr Naomi went on to say if Michael has indeed had fillers and Botox to maintain his youthful looks, it could cost him ‘around $2,000 every three months’.

Michael categorically denied he uses injectables when approached by Daily Mail Australia, saying: ‘That accusation is 100% false.’
