By Saurabh Sharma August 19, 2019 • 14:52 PM View: 1790

London, Aug 19: England's Jofra Archer said that he did breath a sigh of relief when former Australia skipper Steve Smith got up after being hit on the neck by a bouncer bowled by the 24-year-old on Day 4 of the second Ashes Test at Lord's.

Archer clarified that hurting the batsman was never the idea. "It is never the plan. You are trying to get a wicket first. To see him go down, everyone stopped and everyone's heart skipped a beat," Archer said.
