Steve Smith removes Rishabh Pant's guard marks on crease after drinks break | Ind Vs Aus

#rishabhpant #stevesmith #IndvsAus Australia's Steve Smith shadow-batted as he came to the crease after the drinks break, and proceeded to remove Rishabh Pant's guard marks. The third Test between India and Australia is slowly moving towards an exciting finish after an aggressive intent from Rishabh Pant is steering India close to the 407-run target in Sydney. Pant started slowly but took on the charge after spending some time at the crease, taking on the Australian bowlers -- Nathan Lyon in particular. The wicketkeeper-batsman reached his half-century in 64 deliveries, hitting five fours and three sixes. After the drinks break in the first session, however, Australia's no.49 - Steve Smith did try to unsettle Pant by removing his guard marks on the pitch. Smith shadow-batted at the crease, and proceeded to scuffle out the guard marks, forcing Pant to retake the guard.
