𓃲On the second ball of the 21st over, Smith was far from impressed as Jadeja cheekily held onto Marnus Labuschagne, stopping him from taking a run with an unexpected hug. The move left the Aussies fuming while the crowd burst into laughter.

💃Frustration mounting, Smith punched the ball towards Labuschagne, only for India's premier spinner to casually stick his right foot out, adding to the drama.

🀅The Australian skipper gestured angrily, frustrated that Labuschagne’s momentum, and a possible run-scoring chance, had been disrupted.
