Steven Smith passed a second concussion examination on Saturday (September 12), Cricket Australia reported and may return to Australia on Sunday for the second ODI against England in Manchester. Smith missed the opening ODI on Friday, with Australian skipper Aaron Finch noting before the game that he had laid on his head as a precautionary measure after being struck on his head during a practice session. While Smith had passed a concussion test earlier, Australia opted to play it safe and leave him out for the opening game, which visitors won by 19 runs.
