Panesar appeared on the Stick to Cricket Podcast as a guest and talked about his latest controversy. The Stick to Cricket Podcast features former England captains Michael Vaughan and Alastair Cook, alongside former England cricketers David Lloyd and Phil Tufnell.
Steve Smith lost the Australia captaincy after admitting his role in the ball-tampering scandal in 2018. After regular skipper Pat Cummins was confirmed to be sitting out for most of the series, Smith was named the captain.
Smith responded to those comments in a press conference right before the series. Asked to respond to Panesar's comments, Smith instead took a dig at Panesar's appearance on the quiz show Mastermind in 2019.
If I'm guilty of anything, it is having bad general knowledge. And that is better than being a cheat. We've both made mistakes. I made mine on a quiz show. He made his on the cricket field," Panesar wrote.
"I don't think he wants to see me" - Panesar
On the Stick to Cricket Podcast, Panesar was asked how he came up with those comments and if he ever played together with Smith.
Panesar then said that he would apologise to Smith if he ever met the Australian again.
Panesar was asked if he'd ever messaged Smith, but said that he didn't have the Australian's phone number. "I'll message him, then", he said when Vaughan offered to provide the number.
