Champions Trophy: Gambhir's Animated Celebration After Smith's Dismissal Goes Viral
Soon after Smith lost his wicket and started his walk back to the pavilion, Gambhir was seen clapping and churning out some 'expletives' to celebrate the dismissal. The video of Gambhir's reaction went viral on social media with fans backing the head coach's aggressive off-field nature. Smith stitched a 56-run partnership with Labuschagne to take the total to the three-figure mark. Ravindra Jadeja broke the partnership with the dismissal of Labuschagne (29), who was trapped in front of the wickets for lbw in the 23rd over.
Smith then completed his half-century off 68 balls, his 35th in the ODIs. Just after scoring fifty, Smith charged Jadeja over long-off to smash the first six of his innings. In the same over, Jadeja picked up Josh Inglis (11) to break the partnership and leave Australia at 144/4 after 27 overs.
