SMITH MEETS DALAI LAMA

Australian skipper Steve Smith revealed Friday his team held a relaxing session with the Dalai Lama where they learnt about keeping their cool, just a day ahead of the high-pressure series decider against India. "I asked him a question about sleeping and how he could help me and he gave me his blessings," Smith said at a news conference. "We rubbed our noses together. Hopefully it will help me with my sleep over the next five days!" On a more serious note, Smith said the team learnt all about kindness and compassion. "It probably relaxes us a little bit. He [Dalai Lama] is all about compassion and oneness for each and every human being. One thing that we can learn from it is that sometimes we get over the top when we are out there playing cricket. It's a tough game but at the end of the day it's just a game."
