Considered one of the best batters of the modern era, Australia’s Steve Smith forms a part of the Fab Four of cricket. The other members of the Fab Four include former Indian skipper Virat Kohli, former New Zealand captain Kane Williamson and former England Test skipper Joe Root.
Smith had an unconventional start to his cricket career as his unorthodox batting technique raised a lot of eyebrows in the cricket fraternity. However, his sheer hard work, dedication, and consistency helped him defy all the odds and reach the top. Since his debut for Australia in 2010, Smith has had some astonishing numbers to his name.
The 34-year-old has so far featured in 98 Test matches and 142 One Day Internationals scoring 8969 and 4939 runs respectively at an average of 59.39 and 44.49. Steve Smith has also made as many as 63 appearances in the shortest format of the game scoring 1008 runs at an average of 25.20 and a strike rate of 125.21.
The right-hander’s career hit rock bottom in 2018 as he was found guilty in the ball-tampering scandal. The incident had a major impact on the cricketer’s career as he was stripped of his responsibility as the skipper of the Australian team. Adding to the misery, he was also handed a one-year ban from all formats.
Meanwhile, the only good thing that happened to Steve Smith in 2018 has to be his wife Dani Willis. The couple got married in September 2018 in a small gathering comprising their friends and family
