Allan Border furious at Steve Smith

Allan Border believes that “Cricket should have a friendly atmosphere, but I do not think that excessive aggression is not good. With this, he said about Steve Smith that when the Australian team went to India to play the Border Gavaskar Trophy, Steve was praising the opposition bowlers. Although I believe this is absolutely wrong. Because you want to win against the team in front. And if it was me, I would have preferred to play aggressive cricket.

At the same time, he further said that “Australia’s way of playing cricket has been very different from the other. I will always favor aggressive cricket. However, you cannot do that by encouraging the bowlers of the opposition teams. This is the kind of cricket New Zealand plays, because of which he is called ‘Mr Nice Guy'”. Explain that Allen says that do not praise the bowlers against India and show aggression with the opposition team on the field.
