We used to talk daily on phone until recently, when she got busy with her college work.Yesterday i cracked a light joke on her saying, 'she doesn't pick the call anytime i call her.' She became so defensive, and started explaining why she is busy. I really like this girl and i don't want to be in that friend zone. I just want to tell her that i like her, but not in a direct way, and i also dont want to come in across as a clingy guy, asking her to call daily, so please suggest a way to tell her that i like her and i miss her.

 Well - she got defensive, so she obviously doesn't want you to be upset with her - that's a good sign, right?
And no - you don't want to be the clingy guy.
Depends on her sense of humor and what she's studying in college as to how I'd approach it.
"I'm glad that you've finally stopped being so infatuated with me and gotten on with your college studies, but if you don't quit pretending that you're not interested at all, I may start believing it."
or...
"I heard your professor in social sciences isn't going to pass you until you start actually being social again. I am available for a limited time for extra credit."
Seriously, I'm not a big fan of canned lines, but just throw something funny out there that has a little bit of an edge to it but isn't totally offensive. If she has any interest at all, it'll probably fly.
Good luck
