Australia batsman Steve Smith says he is "shocked and disappointed" at suggestions that he deliberately scuffed up the crease during the final day of the third Test against India. The former captain was seen on the stump camera scraping the crease with his boot during a drinks break. Smith denied accusations he was deliberately removing the marks used to guide India's batsmen at the crease. "It's something I do to visualise where we are bowling," Smith told News Corp. Steve Smith 'shocked and disappointed' at claims he erased guard in third Australia-India Test

Wonderful I had the 5Live Extra commentary on low all night, can't claim to have heard a lot, but the increasingly hysterical Aussie commentators woke me up when India needed about 35....

India's chances were written off before the game by most 'experts' ...I heard Aggers and Vaughan saying that 'no one wins in Brisbane'.... shows I think how much the usual aggressive crowd plays a part, aren't they supposed to be the toughest in Australia?

In 2007/08, India became the first and only Asian team to date to defeat Australia at the WACA. With Gabba fortress breached, which ground remains the only venue where Asian sides haven't won a Test?
