Star Australian batter Steve Smith on Thursday wasted little time in reaching his century on the second day of the World Test Championship (WTC) final against the Men in Blue at the Oval on Thursday.
Smith, 95 not out overnight, needed just two more balls to reach the landmark in the day`s opening over. He clipped a half-volley from Mohammed Siraj off his pads for four and next ball turned another wayward delivery to the mid-wicket boundary. On the fourth ball in the same over, Smith seemed distracted by the camera and signalled for it to be moved away, making Siraj stop midway during his bowling run-up. The star India pacer finished his run-up and angrily threw the ball at the stumps`. Watch the video below.
