REUTERS: Australia will need a collective effort by their batsmen to fill the void left by the in-form Steve Smith who will miss the third Ashes test against England, skipper Tim Paine said on Wednesday.
Asked how Australia planned to replace Smith in the third test, Paine told reporters:"We do it as a team." "There aren't too many guys... that have averaged higher than Steve in test cricket. Clearly they are huge shoes to fill and we don't put all that pressure on Marnus," Paine said."Marnus comes in to play a role in our team and it's up to everyone else, particularly our senior players, to make sure we give that little bit more output and cover Steve."
