Smith has led Australia in 38 Tests between 2014 and 2023. Under his leadership, the Aussies won 21, lost 10, and drew six Tests. Smith has racked up 3,867 runs at an incredible average of 66.67 while leading in Tests.

Rishabh Pant remained unbeaten on six, while Ravindra Jadeja stood on four. Three late wickets in the final half-hour halted India's momentum, which had built to 153-2 earlier in the day. Scott Boland and Pat Cummins took two wickets each.

Steve Smith continues his revival in form with a magnificent century to put Australia on top against India on day two of the fourth Test in Melbourne.

Sam Konstas made a 65-ball 60 on his Test debut during the fourth Test at Melbourne, which the Aussies won by 184 runs

Australian batter Steve Smith appreciatively called the teen prodigy Sam Konstas 'mad,' highlighting his burst of energy.

Perhaps, Smith might have remembered a bubbling younger self that earned him the sobriquet -- Smudge. But the 19-year-old Konstas made his presence felt even while fielding, constantly talking to Indian batters from the cordon or close-in positions.
