In the ongoing match between Kolkata Knight Riders & Delhi Capitals, Steve Smith was given a chance to open the innings in place of injured Prithvi Shaw. After being put to bat first by KKR, DC opener Steve Smith was taken aback by a delivery from Ferguson in the 13th over.
Smith tried to paddle scoop Ferguson by going across the line, however, Ferguson surprised him with a slower one and the ball went on to hit Smith's groin area, after which Smith lied down flat on the crease for about 30 seconds.
