गेंद लगने के बाद आर्चर स्मिथ के पास नहीं गए थे और अंपायर की तरफ लौट लिए थे. लेकिन अब आर्चर ने सफाई पेश करते हुए कहा है कि बल्लेबाज को चोट पहुंचने की रणनीति कभी नहीं होती.
आर्चर ने कहा, "आर्चर ने कहा, "यह तय नहीं था. आपकी कोशिश पहले विकेट लेने की होती है. जब वह नीचे गिरे तो हर कोई रुक गया और हर किसी का दिल घबरा गया था."
Steve Smith has been felled by a short ball from Jofra Archer.
He was hit flush on the helmet and was on the ground for some time while the crowd went silent - he's up and talking to the team doctor.
उन्होंने कहा, "जब वह उठे और चलने लगे तब मैंने राहत की सांस ली. कोई भी किसी को स्ट्रेचर पर ले जाते हुए नहीं देखना चाहता. मेरा स्पैल अच्छा जा रहा था और. मैं नहीं चाहता था कि इस तरह का अंत हो."
Is Jofra Archer the most lethal bowler in world cricket today? He did this to three batsmen in this year's World Cup. I'm seriously praying for Steve Smith. Really concerned about him now. pic.twitter.com/0Zeh9C0092
ऑस्ट्रेलियाई कप्तान टिम पेन ने कहा है कि स्मिथ तीसरे मैच में खेलेंगे या नहीं इस बात पर कुछ भी कहना जल्दबाजी होगा. वहीं स्मिथ ने कहा कि वह 100 प्रतिशत फिट होंगे तभी तीसरे मैच में खेलंगे. आपको बता दें कि इंग्लैंड और ऑस्ट्रेलिया के बीच तीसरा टेस्ट गुरुवार से हेडिंग्ले में शुरू हो रहा है.
