Bengaluru, Mar 7:
Steve Smith had no qualms in admitting that he made a mistake by seeking help from the dressing room on a DRS call but the Australia captain insisted that the game was played in good spirit.
The incident had snowballed into a controversy with many former players criticising Smith’s act.
Explaining the incident, Smith said there was a bit of brain fade when he turned to dressing room for help.
“I got hit on the pad and looked towards the non-striker batsman and then turned around towards Paddy. I should not have done that. This happened for the first time. I was looking at our boys, I should not have done that. There was a bit of brain fade,” Smith said at the press conference. (PTI)
