3. Steve Smith:
Steve Smith is famous for his unorthodox batting, but he has also known for his quirks. He has an unusual batting stance as well he is captured patting his pads and bat. In the Amazon Prime series ” The Test”, he revealed that he does some weird stuff which helps him to perform better.
Smith opens up that he taps his left knee pad once, followed by his right, then touches his protective box and taps his bat on the ground – once in front of him and two times behind his feet while at the crease. He further went on to say that it helps him perform better and accepts being a tad superstitious.
“I think its, left pad right pad, box, tap in the middle- behind my foot lookout- behind my foot lookout one, good to go” Smith said in the video released by Cricket Australia.
