Australia’s Steve Smith receives an umpire warning during the second Test against Bangladesh after he appears to encourage Bangladesh fielders to review an unsuccessful LBW appeal on Day 1.
NDTV reports that the warning follows visible on-field communication involving DRS-related actions after the appeal does not go Australia’s way. The issue centers on whether Smith’s conduct is within the boundaries of cricket’s laws and match conduct expectations during the review process. The report frames the moment as a controversy that draws immediate attention from officials and players.
