Steve Smith made his Test comeback in the Ashes after 16 months. And it took three innings for him to gain back his number one rank from being placed fourth. Moreover, after playing seven Test innings, he is the leading run-scorer in the format in 2019. He made his debut in 2010, but it was from 2014 from when he started to show his class.

Smith is only 27 runs away from 7000 Test runs. Smith has a Test average of 64.56, second only to Don Bradman’s 99.94. In his first 16 Tests, Smith averaged only 34.64, but from January 2014 until date, the batter has piled 6003 runs at an average of 75.03.

Also, 24 of his 26 tons have come in this time period. Smith is only 30 and has a few years ahead of him and chances of him ending with a Test average from 70 to 75 isn’t improbable.
