KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- Steve Smith has signed a short-term county deal with Sussex
- Smith will be available for three games for the County side in May before the World Cup final and the Ashes
- England Test captain Ben Stokes has reacted amid huge backlash from fans
Smith is set to play three games for Sussex, who also have Cheteshwar Pujara as their second overseas player, but the deal has received a huge backlash from English fans. Smith, who had a god-like Ashes in 2019 when the Australian team last played a Test series in England where he smashed 774 runs in 7 innings, has returned to form in Test cricket as he already has two centuries in the last home. Summer and the fans are aware of the damage he has caused and hoped that the English counties will try their best to avoid signing him so that he does not get used to the conditions.
Regardless of the opposition or the conditions, Smith has run amok around the world and Stokes will be hoping the home side can stop the Australian batting.
“I’m excited to join Sussex for a few games in May and hopefully contribute to a successful season. I’m particularly looking forward to working with the younger players in the squad and hopefully giving them guidance,” said Smith. , of the County Agreement.
