The qualifiers of the 20-20 World Cup kicked off on 16 October 2022. However, Australia took on India in a warm-up match on 17 October in Brisbane. India were looking for better preparations after playing two practice matches earlier with Western Australia. On the other hand, Australia were looking for some momentum after losing the home T20I series against England.
However, the result did not go in favour of the defending champions in the shortest format of the game. But, Steve Smith had some game time while some players were rested ahead of the World Cup. Now, a video went viral where Smith was seen speaking funny Hindi. Indian radio jockey, Karishma shared the video on her Instagram account as she already shared some funny videos with Kagiso Rabada, Hardik Pandya, and others.
Here is the shared video:

Steve Smith scored only 11 runs off 12 balls in the warm-up game against India
Speaking of the video, both Karishma and Steve Smith created a fictional video. In that video, the Australian batter was seen telling: “Doodh ka doodh... paani ka paani hagya.” Fans found it funny as they started to share the same video on social media platforms.
Speaking of Steve Smith’s recent form, the Australian batter only managed 11 runs off 12 balls in the warm-up game against the Men in Blue. Before that, he played only in one match against England in the three-match series. Steve Smith scored unbeaten seven runs off three balls, including a six. However, in the upcoming mega event, his form might be crucial for the defending champions in the middle order.
Speaking about the warm-up match against India, Australia failed to chase down a target of 187 runs in 20 overs. Skipper, Aaron Finch looked in good touch as he scored 76 runs off 54 balls. He hit seven fours and three sixes throughout the inning. They got bundled out for 180 runs. Now, they will be in action again in the World Cup on 22 October against the Kiwis.
