IND対AUSテストでのスティーブ・スミスの驚異的な140は、インサイドエッジがパッドから切り株にそらされるという奇妙な形で終わった。
The ongoing IND vs AUS Boxing Day Test is getting exciting with the powerful performance from the Australian team in the first innings. Australia found themselves at 455/9 when Akash Deep managed to dismiss Steve Smith in an unexpected twist. Smith, who had been in excellent form throughout the innings, attempted an aggressive shot but got an inside edge that deflected off his pads and onto the stumps slowly. This unfortunate dismissal ended Smith’s impressive innings at 140 off 197 balls. Smith was heartbreaking here.
The crowd at Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) acknowledged his effort with a standing ovation as he walked back to the pavilion. With Smith out, Scott Boland was the last man in, facing some testing deliveries from Akash Deep.
Akash deep strikes twice
Smith’s wicket was the second in quick succession for India, offering them a brief respite as they challenged Australia’s strong batting lineup. Akash Deep, making his presence felt, delivered a successful over for India by testing Scott Boland with some well-directed bouncers. The Indians will hope to leverage this momentum as they continue to contain Australia.
Another century for Smith against India
This innings saw Smith achieving yet another milestone in his illustrious career. Scoring his 11th Test century against India, Smith has now surpassed England’s Joe Root in the record books. Root had previously held the record with 10 centuries against the Indian bowling attack. Smith’s feat of scoring 11 tons in just 43 innings against India is indicative of his prowess and consistency.
Leading centuries against India
Steve Smith now leads the chart with the most Test centuries against India. His batting brilliance places him ahead of notable legends such as Joe Root, who has 10 centuries in 55 innings, and others like Sir Garfield Sobers, Sir Vivian Richards, and Ricky Ponting, each with eight centuries against India. Smith’s continuous success against India has only solidified his status as one of the greatest batsmen of his generation.
