'I Don't Really Feel Pain, Got A Lot Of Movement Now': Smith Provides Injury Update Ahead Of Second Test Vs WI
World Test Championship: Australia batter Steve Smith is confident he will be fit to return from injury for the second Test against the West Indies in Grenada after he ventured to a baseball field for his first hit since suffering the injury in the World Test Championship final.
Smith suffered a compound dislocation of his right little finger attempting a catch at Lord's during the World Test Championship final and the 36-year-old was lucky to have avoided surgery.
The veteran batter, who missed the opening Test of the ongoing three-match series against the Caribbean side with the finger injury, has recently had his stitches removed from the affected area and joined up with his teammates in the Caribbean on Sunday. Smith is expected to take part in full practice on Tuesday in an attempt to return to the side that won the opening Test against the West Indies by 159 runs.
