PAK vs AUS: Marnus Labuschagne chases pigeons at MCG; leaves Steve Smith in splits

Marnus Labuschagne was batting along with Steve Smith on Day 1 of the 2nd PAK vs AUS Test at the MCG on Boxing Day

Australia’s Marnus Labuschagne got a little carried away from the ongoing PAK vs AUS Boxing Day Test. No, it wasn’t something related to cricket, it was the pigeons. Labuschagne took on the task of clearing a group of pigeons that were comfortable seated a little behind the non-strikers crease.

PAK vs AUS: Labuschagne chases pigeons

In a video shared by Cricket Australia on X, Labuschagne was seen running to the non-strikers end following which he was shooing away the pigeons with his bat. Smith, on the other hand, was left in splits at the striker’s end.

Talking about the game, Australia were put in to bat first after Pakistan won the toss and opted to bowl. David Warner and Usman Khawaja provided a solid start for Australia before Warner was dismissed at the stroke of lunch. Khawaja departed a short while later. After Tea on Day 1, Smith and Labuschagne are at the crease for the home side.
