Recently there are reports claiming that Australian star batter Steve Smith might retire from Test Cricket but Steve Smith crashes all the rumours and said he is not going anywhere.
Steve Smith hits his 30th Test Century in the ongoing Test match against Proteas.
Steve Smith went past the great Don Bradman’s record of 29 centuries after compiling his 30th ton at the SCG during the third and final Test of the series against the Proteas.
“I’m always very cryptic with that (retirement) stuff. But I’m not going anywhere, I’m comfortable with where everything is at, we’ve got a few good tours coming up, I’m excited, and I’m still trying to get better. Whilst I still have that hunger and eagerness to try and improve, particularly to help some of the batters coming through … while I’m doing all that I’m enjoying myself and I have no plans for retirement,” the former skipper said during the rain delay on Friday.
Steve Smith had hinted at retirement in November
“No, I don’t have a plan, but I’m 33 now. I’ve been playing international cricket for 13 years. It’s been a long time. I’m still enjoying it, but I’m certainly closer to the end than the start, that’s for sure,” he told The Daily Telegraph in November.
