Steve Smith Broke Down in Press Conference
X
Australian Cricketer Steve Smith addressed media for the first time after he was banned by Cricket Australia for one year and barred from playing IPL 11 by BCCI over ball-tampering scandal. At the press conference, The Star Cricketer looked absolutely devastated and he admitted ball tampering scandal is the biggest mistake of his life.

Steve Smith: 'I take full responsibility for what has happened and don't blame anybody as I'm the captain of Australian Team. I will regret this for the rest of my life. I'm gutted. It's a failure of My Leadership. I will do everything I can to make up for the mistake. I just hope I can earn back respect and forgiveness. Cricket is the greatest sport in the World. It's been my life and I just hope it can be again. I'm sorry. Want to apologise to the pain I have brought to Australia...fans and public'.

When Smith broke down while addressing the press, It was his Father Peter who comforted him and asked to control his emotions. The Former Australian Skipper received the tag of 'cheat' for involvement in ball tampering scandal. Many people shouted 'cheat' while he was at Johannesburg Airport to catch the flight back to Australia.
