Steve Smith left the field at Lord's to receive treatment on his finger.
Australia suffered a massive scare when Steve Smith hurt his finger when attempting a catch on the third day of the ICC World Test Championship Final against South Africa.
Smith was standing in close at slip with a helmet on when South Africa captain Temba Bavuma edged one into the cordon off pacer Mitchell Starc and the Australia veteran grassed the chance with Bavuma on just two at the time.
The drop was further heightened with Smith hurting his finger and having to leave the ground to receive treatment.
Smith commenced the final session of the day off the field to receive further treatment, Australia confirmed.
"Smith currently being assessed in the dressing room. Likely to go for scans," Australia said via a statement.
