Facts & Trivia

Steve Ranked on the list of most popular Cricket Player. Also ranked in the elit list of famous people born in Australia. Steve Smith celebrates birthday on June 2 of every year.

Smith is a right-handed batsman with a technique that has attracted attention for its unorthodoxy. He moves around frequently in the crease, especially during bowlers’ run-up, and ends up with the toes of his feet outside off stump against right-handers, controls the bat with his bottom hand (that is, the hand closest to the blade of the bat), and is capable of playing unconventional cricket shots like the reverse sweep. Playing in a club match in January 2010, right-handed Smith took guard left-handed and hit a six. Due to his unorthodox style, Smith was initially labelled as a limited-overs batsman who might struggle in the longer form of the game, especially early in his career when he was vulnerable outside off stump. However, Smith compensates for his unique technique with outstanding hand-eye co-ordination, focus, and his footwork, especially to spin bowlers, is exemplary. Smith spontaneously experimented with his technique during the Perth Test match in the 2013–14 Ashes, during which he decided to take a “prelim movement back and across” to counter short-pitched bowling. This change has taken his batting average from 33 to 63.55 as it stands as of 2018. At the time of delivery, Smith’s stumps are fully covered, making bowled dismissals unlikely. This position also allows him to play to either the on or off side with ease.
