Steve Smith given comical offer by Wasim Jaffer after twin ODI centuries against India
Wasim Jaffer came up with a comical solution for Team India to get rid of Steve Smith who has been in stunning form in the ongoing ODI series.
Former Indian opener Wasim Jaffer has been immensely active on Twitter since the recently-concluded Dream11 IPL 2020. The right-hander is displaying his hysterical side to fans by sharing memes and trolls to describe certain situations. Jaffer was at it once again as he came up with a hilarious solution for Team India to get rid of former Australian captain Steve Smith who has been in sensational form in the ongoing ODI series and has made life tough for the Men in Blue.

In the first two ODIs of the series, Smith scored two blistering centuries to guide his team to massive totals. Notably, both of Smith's centuries came off 62 balls which also made him the batsman to score the third fastest ODI century for Australia. He was also named the 'Player of the Match' in both the games.
With his second consecutive ton against India on Sunday, the Steve Smith centuries count in ODIs has reached 11. Steve Smith vs India has been a different entity altogether and his numbers are a testament to his prowess against the Men in Blue. The record of Smith vs India in ODIs includes the 1116 runs he has scored in 20 matches at a stunning average of 65.65 with five centuries and as many fifties.
