Steve Smith fired up for 2nd Test after Yasir Shah's 7-digit send-off

India TV News  

A seven-digit send-off has Australia batsman Steve Smith motivated for an improved performance against Pakistan in the second cricket Test. But in the first innings of the first Test at the Gabba in Brisbane last Saturday, Smith faced only nine balls and was bowled by Yasir Shah for four runs. “It gave me a bit more motivation next game to not get out to him," Smith said Tuesday at Adelaide Oval, where the day-night Test begins Friday. England paceman Stuart Broad has dismissed Smith eight times in tests — the only bowler to get the former Australia captain out more than leg-spinner Shah.
