Harbhajan Singh, the former India spinner, said India can dismiss Australia’s star batsman Steve Smith in the final ODI of the ongoing three-match series by deploying a spin-heavy attack.
Smith, who was crucial in Australia’s series win last week, slammed two consecutive hundreds in the first two ODIs in Sydney. His double tons helped Australia reach mammoth totals of 376 and 389 respectively.
With India’s bowling attack under scrutiny and Smith’s devastating form, hitting 25 boundaries and six sixes, Harbhajan has devised a plan to get rid of the 31-year-old batsman early.
The veteran bowler suggested that deploying a spin-heavy attack against Smith might lead to his dismissal easily. “I would like to see Smith batting against spinners,” Harbhajan told India Today.
