Lahore Former Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has spoken of dismissing world number one Test batsman Steve Smith of Australia in just four balls. Akhtar said that he can only dismiss Smith in four balls. He has given this challenge on social media.
On Tuesday, Shoaib responded to a tweet from cricket website ESPNcricinfo. He responded in return for a tweet by ESPNcricinfo that sparked a field battle between Australia's Steve Smith and Shoaib Akhtar.
Akhtar responded by writing that even if Smith was bowled out while bowling him today, it would take only four balls. He said that he should do a three-handed bouncer and then he will dismiss Steve Smith on the fourth ball.
Smith was banned for a year for being found guilty in a ball tampering dispute. Even after returning from the ban, he batted in the Ashes series. Smith scored 774 runs at an average of 110 with three centuries and three half-centuries. It was on this magnificent performance that he again managed to secure the first position in the Test rankings.
Steve Smith currently ranks first in the current Test rankings with 911 points. Indian captain Virat Kohli is at number two. Kohli has 886 points and is 25 points less than Smith. He has lost a lot due to poor performance in the New Zealand Test Series.
Recently England veteran fast bowler Stewart Broad said about Smith that it is difficult to dismiss him. Broad said that he is still looking for that exact ball out of Smith.
