WATCH: Steve Smith Goes For A 'Peculiar' Switch Hit Against Adil Rashid

AUS vs ENG: In the ongoing 2nd ODI between Australia and England at Sydney Cricket Ground, the home team opted to bat first after winning the toss. Australian batting stalwart Steve Smith missed out on his well-deserved hundred as he held the innings together with Marnus Labuschagne. 

In the 32nd over by Adil Rashid, the spinner had bowled a no-ball on the 2nd delivery. Consequently, the subsequent delivery was a free hit.

Here, Steve Smith tried something he has been seen doing very rarely. The batter changed his batting side and became a left-hander, trying to dispatch the ball towards a deep point. However, the batter missed the ball completely and was left clueless on the crease. 

The same bowler dismissed Steve Smith in the 44th over after scoring 94 runs in 114 balls with 5 fours & a six. While writing this piece, Australia are at 247/5 in 46 overs. Australia won the 1st ODI and will seal the 3-match series if they win the 2nd ODI.
