"If we got 280+, things could have been different"- Australia captain Steve Smith after loss vs India in 2025 CT semifinal

At the post-match presentation, Australian skipper Steve Smith reflected on the loss, saying: (via Cricbuzz)

"I thought the bowlers did a really good job, they worked hard throughout, the spinners squeezed and enabled us take the game a bit deeper than potentially could have done. It was a tricky wicket to start on batting and tough to rotate the strike at times, everyone did a really good job tonight. It played pretty similar throughout to be fair.

He continued:

"Little bit of hold for the spinners, little bit of spin here and there and a bit of skid. And the pacers, it was just some two-paceness to the wicket, balls were holding a little bit. It wasn't easiest batting conditions, probably why the scores were where they were. Having said that, we probably could have put a few more on. We lost a couple of wickets at crucial times. If we got 280+, things could have been different."

South Africa and New Zealand will square off in the second semifinal of the 2025 Champions Trophy on Wednesday (March 5) at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
