Australia vs Sri Lanka: 'I will be ok', says Steve Smith on road to recovery after concussion

Steve Smith took to social media to reassure his fans he will be alright after suffering a concussion while attempting to save a six in Sunday's Twenty20 international against Sri Lanka in Sydney. Smith made an acrobatic dive in an attempt to prevent a six but fell over the boundary rope and slammed his head on the ground. Team-mates Pat Cummins and Glen Maxwell rushed to his aid while signalling to the medical staff to attend to Smith, who stayed down clutching his head. "Thanks everyone for reaching out. My head has felt better but I will be ok," Smith wrote on Twitter on Monday.

IPL Auction 2022: Delhi Capitals move to utility resources

The bowling attack which wore an ominous look with Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, R Ashwin, Axar Patel and Avesh Khan has been disturbed. Shardul Thakur, Mustafizur Rahman, Khaleel Ahmed, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Kuldeep Yadav and Lungi Ngidi will assume lead roles with their variations to complement Nortje and Axar. IPL AUCTION: AS IT HAPPENEDDavid Warner and Mitchell Marsh, the player of the T20 World Cup and player of the T20 World Cup final, are expected to make up for the lack of firepower due to the loss of Shikhar Dhawan, Shimron Hetmyer and Marcus Stoinis. But the real challenge will be to stabilize the middle-order which will help leverage their skipper Rishabh Pant to play the high-impact role. This is where the likes of KS Bharat, Mandeep Singh and Sarfaraz Khan are expected to play their roles. "One must remember Bharat played at No. 3 for RCB last year and did a very good job. He is expected to play a similar role here if needed. He is not seen just as a backup wicketkeeper to Pant," Saba Karim, DC's head of talent search, told TOI moments after the auction on Sunday evening.

Punjab Kings went in with the biggest pool of Rs 28.65 crore while Lucknow Super Giants, who had a busy Saturday, were left with the least amount of money - Rs 6.90 crore. While most franchises chose to wait and watch, Punjab splurged on two players. At Rs 11.5 crore, Englishman Liam Livingstone became the most expensive overseas buy while the current flavour from West Indies, Odean Smith, was bought for Rs 6 crore. IPL AUCTION: AS IT HAPPENEDGiven the limited resources, bidding wasn't frenzied but teams moved with purpose to acquire players they had targeted. Eventually, 204 players, including 67 overseas cricketers, were brought, with the total spending in the auction touching Rs 551.7 crore. Livingstone's stint with Rajasthan Royals yielded just 42 runs from five innings last year but he ensured a bidding war with Kolkata Knight Riders making the opening bid and Chennai Super Kings jumping into the fray. Punjab and Gujarat Titans too threw their hats in the ring. Punjab almost had him at Rs 10. 25 crore but Sunrisers Hyderabad upped the price tag, till Punjab had the final say but at an additional cost of Rs 1.25 crore.
