Smith has been in fine form in Ashes 2021-22
In the ongoing Ashes 2021-22, the right-handed batsman hasn't really played any big knock yet but has looked in fine touch. Apart from captaining his side to a big win in Adelaide, Smith has scored 127 runs in 4 innings at an average of 31.75 and fans might believe that his best is yet to come in the remaining two matches.
After winning the first 3 matches quite convincingly, Australia are now scheduled to play the 4th Test (from Jan 5) in Sydney and the 5th Test (from Jan 14) in Hobart.
