New Delhi: For a change, everyone involved in the ongoing India-Australia Test series got a moment of laughter when Wriddhiman Saha and Steve Smith involved in a funny wrestling match on Thursday.

It happened off the third delivery of the 80th over in Australian innings, with Ravindra Jadeja bowling to Smith. The Aussie skipper failed to make a contact with the ball, even as it turned from outside off.

An alert Saha, probably sensing an edge, without wasting a moment launched himself and went for a catch. But Smith wasn't to give up that easy, even though Saha did all he could do to retrieve the ball.

They ended up tumbling down together, and engaged in a brief wrestling match.

Luckily for everyone, the delivery was declared a dead ball, leaving everyone in a feat of laughter.

Indeed, a rare moment, considering how both the camps, and match officials have endured some taxing time after the Bengaluru Test.
