Steven Peter Devereux Smith (born 2 June 1989) is an Australian international cricket player. He used to be the captain of the Australian national team in all three types of cricket games. Currently, he is the vice-captain of the Australia Test team. Many people think he is one of the best Test batsmen of his time.

Smith was part of the Australian teams that won the 2015 and 2023 Cricket World Cups. He also helped Australia win the 2021 ICC T20 World Cup and the 2023 ICC World Test Championship.

When he first joined the Australian team in 2010, Smith was chosen as a leg-spinning player who could do a bit of everything (an all-rounder). But he was always seen as a promising batsman because he played very well in local cricket games. Now, Smith mainly plays as a batsman and bowls only sometimes. He became the captain in late 2015, taking over from Michael Clarke.

Smith has won many important awards. These include the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy (ICC Cricketer of the Year) in 2015. He was also named ICC Test Player of the Year in 2015 and 2017. For the years 2011–2020, he was named the ICC Men's Test Player of the Decade. In December 2017, he reached a very high Test batting rating of 947 points. This is the second-highest rating ever, just behind the legendary Don Bradman.

In March 2018, Smith faced a difficult time as Australian captain. There was an incident during a Test match against South Africa where a player tried to change the condition of the ball. Smith admitted that the team's leadership group knew about it. After an investigation, Cricket Australia banned Smith from all international and local cricket in Australia for one year. He was also not allowed to be considered for any leadership role for another year.

In November 2021, Smith returned to a leadership role as the Test vice-captain. He even captained the Test team again in December 2021 when Pat Cummins was not available. Since 2021, he has been Australia's vice-captain in Test matches.

How Steve Smith Plays

Steve Smith is a right-handed batsman. His batting style is very unique and has been compared to Don Bradman. Smith moves a lot at the batting crease, especially when the bowler is running up. He often ends up with his feet outside the off stump. He is also very good at playing unusual shots.

Even though his style is unusual, Smith has amazing hand-eye coordination and focus. He is also very good at moving his feet, especially against spin bowlers. In 2013, he changed his technique to better handle fast, short balls. This change helped his batting average go from 33 to over 60.

Smith is known for his great concentration. He can bat for a very long time, sometimes even for a whole day.

Early in his career, Smith was a leg-spin bowler. But as his batting improved, he bowled less often.

As a fielder, Smith is considered one of the best slip fielders ever. He holds the record for the fastest player to take 300 catches in international cricket. He is also great at running out players and catching balls in the outfield.

When he was captain, Smith was sometimes called "Captain Grumpy" because he was very serious. He was also known for being very involved in choosing players for the team.

Smith is consistently ranked as one of the top Test batsmen in the world.
