Australia are set to face West Indies in two match Test series.
First match is scheduled to commence on November 30, Wednesday. Steve Smith, who is a part of the Aussies’ red-ball contingent for the same expressed that he is gearing up for the series despite enduring a self-inflicted hip niggle.
“It was me being just silly to be honest. I was hitting myself in the psoas, trying to loosen that up and I got a little low and I hit a little nerve or something. My hip is a little bit grumbly, but all will be fine. For me where I’ve got to right now (technically) is like the ultimate for me,” said Smith.
“I feel like I don’t have to work as hard to access the off-side with my body and my hands. I can just play with a nice flow. It was a slight change, but it just felt easier and I felt like I had a lot more time in different areas of my game. It just feels really good,” the batter added.
