Smith was concussion when he landed on his head while attempting to save a six on the edge of the boundary during a T20s against Sri Lanka at Sydney. He missed the last three T20s against Sri Lanka before flying to Pakistan for the Test series which starts Friday.
바카라The head바카라s progressed really well, the last few days, so I바카라m feeling in a good space,바카라 Smith told reporters in an online news conference on Tuesday.
바카라I바카라ve done a lot of stuff 바카라 getting back to playing and had a couple of good hits in Melbourne before we came away. Today (practice) is just about ticking off facing fast bowling, and once that바카라s done, then everything should be fine.바카라
Smith was speaking ahead of Australia바카라s first practice session at the Pindi Cricket Stadium, venue for the first of three Test matches. The second Test will be played in Karachi from March 12-16 and the third in Lahore from March 21-25.
The series is part of the ICC바카라s World Test Championship, with Australia in second spot 바카라 between Sri Lanka and Pakistan. The Tests will be followed by three ODIs and T20s 바카라 all in Rawalpindi.
This is Australia바카라s first full Test tour in nearly three years since it beat England in the Ashes in 2019, and playing on subcontinent wickets will be a challenge for the visiting batters against the likes of fast bowlers like Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf.
바카라Getting accustomed to the conditions is really important,바카라 said Smith, who is a veteran of 82 test matches and has scored 7,784 runs at a healthy average of 59.87. 바카라It바카라s obviously great to be back here in Pakistan 바카라 we바카라re really excited. We know how passionate Pakistanis are about cricket and we바카라re excited to get into it in a few days.바카라
In the wake of reports that Australian spin bowler Ashton Agar바카라s wife had received a death threat on social media, which was investigated and deemed not creditable by both the Pakistan and Australian cricket boards, Smith said the squad feels safe in Pakistan.
바카라We바카라ve got a lot of people here working with us. We trust our security and everyone involved, and we바카라re feeling incredibly safe here in Pakistan,바카라 Smith said. 바카라We바카라ll be guided by our security and the people that we trust around us.바카라
