Tim Paine issues clarification over Steve Smith scuffing batting mark controversy
Referring to Steve Smith scuffing Rishabh Pant's batting mark, Australia captain Tim Paine issued a clarification, saying that he does that every single match, five or six times a day. "He's always standing in the batting crease, shadow batting," Paine added. "He wasn't by any stretch of the imagination trying to change guard or do anything like that," Paine stated.
