Steve Smith left fuming after controversial dismissal during Sheffield Shield clash - Watch

Hindustan Times  

Steve Smith is the kind of batsman who is well known for putting a price on his wicket. It was more or less the same during the Sheffield Shield clash between New South Wales and Western Australia where Smith was once again playing on 103 after a brilliant show against the opposition bowlers. Smith was cramped for space by a short delivery from Marcus Stoinis and although he wanted to play it over the slips, the ball sailed straight into the hands of wicket-keeper Sheffield Shield clash Josh Inglis. Earlier, ruthless opening pair Aaron Finch and David Warner ran riot as Australia routed Pakistan by 10 wickets in Perth to wrap up their Twenty20 series 2-0 Friday in emphatic fashion. The home team won in Canberra by seven wickets, thanks to a brilliant 80 not out by Steve Smith, and were on track to also triumph in Sydney only for rain to save the visitors.
