Indian Batsman Copy Steve Smith Batting Style: Former Australian captain Steve Smith is known for his strange batting style. He always hits shots by moving back and forth on the crease and this strategy has also worked for him. Now a video has surfaced on social media, in which a young Indian player is also making headlines by batting in the same style. It is very difficult to copy Smith’s style, but this young Indian’s style has created a stir on the internet.
Richard Kettleborough, who umpires in international cricket matches, has shared this video clip. In which it can be seen how this young batsman is showing the bat forward after defending the ball, just like Steve Smith does. After that he adopted a strange method to release the ball outside the off stump. Even his batting stance was similar to Steve Smith. From this it can be understood that in India, not only Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma but also Steve Smith are fans.

Steve Smith 1 run away from creating history
Before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against India, Steve Smith had scored 9,685 runs in his Test career and he had to score 315 runs to touch the 10,000 mark. By the end of the series against India, he had scored 314 runs in 5 matches including 2 century innings. That means Smith is just one run away from touching the mark of 10,000 runs in Test cricket. He is soon going to become the 15th player and overall fourth player of Australia to score 10 thousand runs in test matches. His test average is 55.86 and till now apart from scoring 34 centuries, he has also played 41 half-century innings.
