Steve Smith’s form is growing ever more ominous just days out from the 2019 World Cup with the Australian superstar last night making a wonderful ton against England.
It was an innings few Australian cricket fans will forget, for a variety of different reasons. I refer to, of course, Andrew Symonds’ brilliant 143 not out versus Pakistan in Australia’s opening game of the 2003 World Cup in South Africa.

Any concerns about Steve Smith’s form, fitness and ability to adapt to a new batting role have evaporated over the past three weeks as the former Australian skipper has made a sparkling return to high level cricket.
For starters, the Australians have three world-class opening batsmen in David Warner, Aaron Finch and Usman Khawaja – a good problem to have.
With the greatest competition in cricket commencing in England next week, Australia are steadily shaping as a decent chance of reclaiming their 2015 title as world champions.

Usman Khawaja has undergone scans on his jaw at a hospital in Southampton after being struck by an Andre Russell delivery in Australia’s win over the West Indies. Khawaja was forced off the field early in the innings, when he had scored just five, and was hit by a ball that reared up off a […]
