Steve Smith is an Australian cricketer and former Australian captain. He is a crucial member of the Australian side in all three formats. At the age of 21, he made his Test debut in 2010 and was touted as the next “Shane Warne”. Steve Smith made his debut by demonstrating his ability as a leg-spinner. But, when he got the chance as a batsman in the lower order he had done a tremendous job.

Many people thought he was better with the bat than with the ball. In 2013 he started shifting his focus on batting and from thereon his career went upward. After being involved in the ball-tampering incident, Smith’s reputation took a knock when he was given a one-year ban from international cricket. Steve Smith, on the other hand, showed greater resiliency with his outstanding performance in the 2019 ICC World Cup and the Ashes.
