I can't believe the hypocrisy of the commentary, claiming Smith has devalued cricket by leaving the field to get meaningful net practise. So Smith demeans the sport they claim.
But the ECB can organise a tour match full of spinners and mediocre part-time medium pacers for Smith to practise against pre-Archer.
The commentators and the ECB are the hypocrites.
Smith has put the Ashes and cricket in general well ahead of meaningless stats playing against a half-arsed tour match squad full of weekend warriors!
Smith reportedly lost 3-5 mill being out of cricket for his suspended period and its rumored he has demanded a truckload of money from the ACB if they want to make him captain again..
