We Thought He’d Just Be Leg-spinner Who Can Bat At No. 8 Or 9: Paine Hails Smith's Journey So Far
Former Australian Test: Former Australian Test captain Tim Paine has shared his thoughts on Steve Smith’s debut and rapid ascent to becoming one of the nation's greatest cricketers, ahead of Smith's milestone of 10,000 runs. Paine also believes Smith still has much more to contribute to the sport.
Paine made his Australian debut alongside Smith in 2010 at Lord’s against Pakistan. Smith, initially chosen as a bowling all-rounder, scored 1 and 12 in his debut Test, batting at number 8.
Paine said everyone expected him to be just a leg spinner with the ability to bat competently at number 8 or 9, but no one thought he would define a generation of cricket.
